Cotton Fields (1969) - CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL (CCR) - Lyrics
Chorus1:
When I was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle,
In them old cotton fields back home;
Chorus2:
It was down in Louisiana,
Just about a mile from Texarkana,
In them old cotton fields back home.
Chorus3:
Oh, when them cotton bolls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton,
In them old cotton fields back home.
S.Vansay (Vanhxay)
Anyone listening this legendary song in "2024"?.....
My mom and I used to sing this on our way to the dining hall at her retirement community between 2013 until she died in 2016 whenever I visited.
Brings back memories!
Absolutely 💯 ccr is the best ❤
Present.❤

Yes I do
50 years later, the song still sounds good 👍
Actually, it was written 82 years ago by Huddie Ledbetter, better known as Lead Belly. There are many covers of this song. The best known versions of Cotton Fields are that of The Beach Boys as well as that of CCR.
@@pabloguerrero7582 You stole my thunder.
@@pabloguerrero7582 I didn't know that. WOW. JK, Big Bend of Florida, USA
@Pablo Guerrero. Exactly. This song was recorded in 1940 by Lead Belly. Several versions of this song have been recorded all these years, but my favorite is that of CCR.
it is still a song of the South.
The music of CCR will never die.
Yes...Never!
INDEED
It's actually the music of Leadbelly (Huddie Ledbetter), but this is proof that the music of Leadbelly will never die.
👍
Never
One of the best songs I've ever heard. It takes me back to those happy years of the seventies of the 20th century.
So very true

How are you?
🙌🙌🙌🙌
You can't beat the music from the 60s and 70s now that's real music
Totally agree wt you..we have the best music at those years..music n songs of the universe..👍👍👍 hearing wt life ..
I know some they scroll heavy but smooth as county breeze wanna know that say country raod alone the song
CCR music always reminds me of Vietnam, we had one of their albums and we would argue what side we would play next! Good ol days! 1969 and 70
So true those were the good times of music
@@oldmanfromoc7684 I think most moves that were about Vietnam used CCR music in them.
For some of us kids in the 1970s, the only entertainment was radio, and listening to such greats as CCR. We would tape their songs, and listen to them over and over again. It wasn't a time of plenty, but we were none the worse for it. The Seventies were special.
the 70s were special in so many ways. miss those times so much
Before social media we didn't have the benefit of people influencing others with their misery. Because of this, it might not ever be the same as it was before we got so "smart". But music is the best time traveling device we have available to us. So, enjoy friend.
I was singing along with CCR one day, my 16 yr old daughter asked me how I knew that song by CCR. I told her it came out when i was a teenager, She did not believe me, LOL I told all about Creedence Clearwater Revival back in the ancient times
Hello 👋 sue
corona and riots 2020 ffs take me back to the 70s
Just wanna go back to the cotton fields back home
It's all fun and games until you are not dropped on some rich country **except america** and then you face either war or dictatorships.
All the crap happened under Obama’s watch. Oh wait, no it didn’t, it was under Trumps unleadership.
2020 and still listening to CCR...many memories from the 70's !

This song touches my heart.... Reminds me of my late Mum. Growing up in a humble cotton farming family in Eastern Uganda 😢 😢and life is still treating me badly....
I came to know this great song through my Swedish....he had the CD back in 2007 from that time till date i sing it with my children. CCR still rocks and is my phone ringtone.
Un abrazo amigo,desde Argentina.
I grew up listening to CCR and so many other wonderful groups of the 60's and 70's. I still listen to the same songs along with a few later ones that I selectively added to my favorites. I'm retired now and spend a little time each day listening to music. Let's always keep the classic songs alive. Thanks and take care.
Yes I'm not quite there yet , but I sure do hope our sick world can keep the classics alive for a long time. We need them to keep us sane

You are my friend now 🇺🇬
It was in 1975,the day with my teacher and friends went out picnic, we were listening the song, I was young, my teacher told me about the band CCR, in those days my schooling was outside my state, this morning when listening the song reminds me my youthfu younger days, yes in 2020 still listening and its a big yes till date.
I am a 27 year old teacher and I play CCR every morning for my class. They call me old, but I say timeless!
Yes, listening to this in 2020, transports me back to the 70’s!
An incredible sound never to be replicated.
That's when country music actually sounded like country music.
One of the best bands ever!
i agree with you, absolutely
Yes
Me too I live in Thailand
Surely are

I remember this playing on the radio when I was a child. Not sure how old I was but it stuck with me. It's surprising to find it as CCR is one of my favorite bands from way back but I had no idea that they played this song! Great memories.
It's just the same to me
I shoud cry hearing the song.
I have the same memories!!
Been a life time fan!
Anyone who Lived in the 60's and 70's would know this song was a folk FAVORITE!!!!! My sisters and I would have SO MUCH fun dancing to this when we were
very small!!! While we were at my Aunt & Uncle's house in Virginia, My uncle found this song and played it. My Aunt & Uncle started dancing with my cousins and
we all cheered them!!! Then my mother said, " You haven't seen anything yet"!!!! Then my mother, My Aunt Rose, My sisters Eva, Nancy, Caroline, and me got up and
just ripped the patio up!!!! My girlfriend Debbie FREAKED OUT!!!! we got done and we all hugged and kissed my girlfriend Debbie!!! My mother was crying and held all
of us!!! She Said, " These kids were Children when they first heard this"!!! My Aunt Rose replied, " These kids NEVER lost their touch"!!!! I told Debbie, " honey!!! Eva and I
used to just have so much fun dancing to this and we taught Caroline and Nancy how to dance to this as well!!!!
that's really good to hear Armando. This is an awesome song and even better enjoyed with family as you did!
I wish I was white

@@monkeymovies3093 Man, I saw this comment while I was eating at a restaurant and I busted out laughing at my stupid comment. I made that back when I was insecure and a social reject. Sorry man, I’m better now. Have a good night man. 😂
It's blues. Written by Ledbelly
One of the greatest bands EVER.
John Flanagan....Yes I agree. They are loved by young and old alike, their music and songs never goes out of style.
How could anybody not like these guys
Still remember standing in our cotton fields back home, screaming out this song .... sweet sweet memories ... ❤
I'm 22 years old and absolutely love this song! My grandma used to sing this to us when we were little
I love this song
Pity about Creedence Clearwater that they were just a 100 hit wonder band. Simply Magnificent.
I sang this song while nursing & rocking My Babies. Lord Have Mercy... Those are some "Sweet" Memories. I Love You Lela & Taylor, Your Only Mamma ; )'
John Fogerty, Tom Fogerty✝, Stu Cook, Doug Clifford. CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL!
I will love you forever guys.
Like many of their other songs, CCR sure hit this one out of the park.
I can still hear my mom singing this song. She sang it all the time when I was a kid.
Loved this band!! Saw them many times at Country Jams!! May the great members RIP!!!
This song has a distinctive feel to it definitely one of many from this era for the ages
Real American music! Stunningly pleasant to listen to! Thanks to the authors for this music! I am writing on behalf of Russian fans who are nostalgic for the times when there was peace. Health to you and pure reason. The old dictator will not be able to force us to destroy each other. Everything will be fine.
😘o it gshjza. Laf

When music and times were good! Ahh

Exelente, gratos recuerdos, por siempre Credence
Yeah never never die
Great song... Still listening 2019
I was a great CCR fan back in the 60's. Still love their music--those were great times!!!!!
When I came back to the states from Korea on a slow ship this was the only record they had and played it 24. 7. for 18 days and nights and amazing i still love it
Chuckles....
I saw CCR in concert in 1972 as a graduation from high school present from my brother. They were great. Doug Cliffords hands while drumming were just a blur. They were and are extremely talented...John's brother Tom Fogarty later died of pneumonia, I think it was. John has written so many beautiful songs ovef the years. Wonderful, great band!!!
Tom died from AIDS which he got from a bad blood transfusion. A real pity to go out like that.
One of the classics from the 70s
1960s
I found a Jordanaires rendition that went back to 1961. The song has been around, but CCR does a fine job with it. Love it!
It was a hit in the US by The Highwaymen in 1962.
2023 still listen to this song 🥲🤧
Удивительный певец и удивитеьная группа - в любом стиле поют превосходно
It was my dogs’ favourite song. Every time I played it he would howl and yodel along with the song. I get teary eyed whenever I hear it. God I miss that dog.

Una de las mejores canciones, siempre la pongo cuando voy manejando. La primera vez que la oí casi llore. Casi 2020 y sigue en mi playlist.
Are you still there
Don Ramón me trajo aquí 😂
Huddie Ledbetter was my idol when i was young, carl perkins too but huddy was a blues man who sometimes plays folks and country. That's why I love him.....John Fogerty
My favorite version of this song. When I was 4 yrs. old I helped my Grandfather pick cotton by hand, not a machine. That was in the early '60's. Wouldn't take all the money in the world for that experience and would do it again just to spend time with my Grandfather, as you can tell I loved my Grandfather very, very much. He was my best friend. There will never be another friend like that in my life.
Are ur grandpa is fine now? I hope he fine
" at the time when i was young " i still remember this song "COTTON FIELD " 💖🌷

Tengo 40 años y mi padre me enseñó ese tipo de música, que no la cambio por la de mi epoca ....!!!
¿Escuchaste la versión de Don Ramón?
It will never be forgotten that kind of music stays for ever
This song by these guys always gets me moving and puts a smile on my face
brings me back ...to the good old time ....we I was 14 years old...thank you
ccr was fantastic group from CA but many southern USA songs and other great songs timeless and missed by me and many others
John Folgerty is from Florida, met him.
@@tomcomiskey6350 I saw an interview with him years ago and he said he was from Oklahoma.
Always loved this song. Great tribute to Lead Belly! CCR did this song proud!
I have been listening to CCR and this song since the late 60"s. I never get tired of them. I have just recently discovered
there is no place in Louisiana that is a mile from Texarkana.
LOL
Creedence ficara na minha lembrança para sempre pela minha adolescencia
Golden Oldie, Great !!!
Not a native English speaker but this was one of the first English speaking song I knew.
My father would kept listening it on repeat when I was a baby now I am in my 30st with my first kid and I play him this song as a lullaby.
This just randomly popped up while listening to my local radio.
I'm not a "farm" or "ranch" person.
I always grew up in a city.
I was born after 2000.
I generally don't like country music.
I'm not even american, nor have visited a place similar to the one describe in this song.
And yet, somehow, this song makes me feel at home
Just saw John Fogerty and ZZ Top at an outdoor concert and he still rocks those tunes and to a sell out crowd of that generation,it was A-Mazing!
Hey: Good Music NEVER dies. Listen to Chris Stapleton.... That's TODAYS CCR... People will still be listening to Chris in 50 years time (Same as CCR)
Reminds me of San Francisco in 1975. We had a band and did a lot of CCR and did it well. Good times great music
Hey: So did I... Listen to Chris Stapleton.... That's TODAYS CCR... People will still be listening to Chris in 50 years time (Same as CCR) Love from South Africa

@@chrisrobinson6007 we ll do thanks
Thanks for playing this unforgettable song brings me back to my teen years . Love it .
Does it get any better. Remember hearing this for the first time at my cousin's house in 1969. We played it over and over for hours. Still touches my soul.
You poor soul. 😉
I first learned this song along with another Huddie William Ledbetter song Boil Weavil in 1959 in 1st grade in Kentucky.
Guess I at least had a better musical education. 😁
As Brown versus the Borad of Education of Topeka Kansas had not reached Kentucky at this time, it would seem that my white school would be one that would not have been teaching songs written by a Black Man, go figure. 🤔
I remember being at an important exam back in 1970. I was nervous and this wasn`t helped by the fact that I was suffering a complete blank. Suddenly this song sprang into my mind. I started to relax and this lead to me to remembering the necessary info to get through the exam. Since then I´ve been a strong fan.
CCR music has the same effect on me! 😊
I love this - they were a great group for sure!
Takes me back to my teenage years. I am 71 and not heard this for decades. Remembered all the lyrics as well as I sang along.
Hey: Listen to Chris Stapleton.... That's TODAYS CCR... People will still be listening to Chris in 50 years time (Same as CCR) Love from South Africa
Not many to remember.
I still remember this song,my n my dad´s fav one...got back memories....
During high school in the 70s, CCR was one of my favourites, also the song Cotton Field, simple but impressive.
thank you.
nice videos.
How amazing is John Fogerty's version of old songs. How good musician he is!!!!

Jewel of the past with truly wonderful singers and players - thank you guys - brings back wonderful memories of the time when singing was rich and music wonderful..........
Este tema también es un buenísimo, me encanta. inolvidable es para todos los tiempo.
By far the best version of this classic, Willie and the poor boys was played to death in my youth, just love this band
Yes, it was. Also in other countries. Like Poland, where I grew up. CCR was a reason to go to the States, a reason as good as any other.
Beaut. All CCR stuff is good for the soul.
“I love this song” 👴🏻
Grande Credence, feliz año 2020 para los miembros de la banda que vivan y para todos que lean este comentario. Saludos desde Galicia (España)
Reminds me of High School days and Younglife.
The most beautiful scene of the video, is the white dress girl and loose hair in the middle of the cotton crop, it is the scene of the video that most expresses feeling
Finally i can find and hear this song after 14 years 🥺 its has been too long
I found a double cd of CCR at a goodwill store for 2$ and this song is on it, mint condition .
Just a Nam Vet
It's 2021 August but still one of my favorite. Evergreen ✨
love that song, so many memories, well arranged video!!!
This song which recalls old times in my hometown....
They made it so easy and clean. There are many important professions in the world and musicians are one of them. Good music can save your day.
I used to sing this in mid 60's. I don't recall whose recording I was singing. Lead Belly wrote it in the 40's. Actually in high school quite often a group of us boys would sing it between classes. My grandpa and uncle raised cotton. That stuff could cut your fingers.
About a month ago I was in Shreveport at food joint. This came on the PA. I and an older woman sang this song. Had a good time, laughing and cutting up.
🥰 กลับมาฟังเพลงนี้อีกก็คงยังเพราะอยุ่เหมือนเดิมไม่มีเปลี่ยนเลย นั่งชิวๆสบายๆรับลมหนาว กับ เพลงเพราะๆ เดือน พฤศจิกายน 2562 😍 wow!
Excelente música, que me hace recordar mis años de la juventud.
The blessing from Above that is Music is that the world around could be crashing down, but with a cherished song, there may be tears in the eyes, yet a smile on the face. 😂. Miss ya Mom.
I can still see my Mom dancing saying Come dance with me! I would dañce with her!! We would be dancing side by side! Miss you Mom!
John Fogerty at his best, a magical song forever.
Yes. Peace, Friend.

creedence bandb: thr kings of country rock...
My dear aunt Olie gave birth to her daughter and went right back to picking cotton. Back in the hills of Arkansas. So I am told. She had some cotton ball in a wooden bowl setting on the coffee table.
I only wish this amazing one had more verses...love it!
in England I think this was the all time great group. Dave.
Grew up listing this great band through my brothers old tapes
I love this song ! It popped into my head & I just had to sing it! It’s an old song from way back in “the day”
It's like Lead Belly purposely wrote this song for CCR to come along and record the DEFINITIVE version years later! I can see the smile on his face, hear the rhythm dancing in his ears, and feel the joy in his heart listening to this CLASSIC version!
