Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Goe gammle Cotton Feilds vårt hjem. Den gang jeg var bitte, bitte liten blei, blei jeg vogget i søvn av mamma.
Og jeg mener Cotton Feilds er vårt hjem.
Dynamitt i Luisianna, bare noen mil fra Texicana.
Goe gammle Cotton Feilds vårt hjem.
Da jeg har bare gode minner om den tid, som nå forsvinner. Det var liv gammle Cotton Feilds vårt hjem.
Dynamitt i Luisianna, bare noen mil fra Texicana. Goe gammle Cotton Feilds vårt hjem.
Den gang jeg var bitte, bitte liten blei, blei jeg vogget i søvn av mamma. Og jeg mener Cotton Feilds er vårt hjem.
Goe gammle Cotton Feilds vårt hjem.
Da jeg har bare gode minner om den tid, som nå forsvinner. Det var liv gammle Cotton Feilds vårt hjem.
The lyrics to Jiws's song Cotton Fields describe the singer's deep attachment to their childhood home in the cotton fields of Louisiana. The song begins by describing the proximity of their home to Texas, suggesting a strong connection to the Southern United States. The singer then fondly recalls being rocked to sleep by their mother as a small child, highlighting the comfort and security provided by their home in the cotton fields. Despite the fact that things are changing and the singer fears they will lose touch with their roots, they still strongly believe that the cotton fields of Louisiana will always be their true home.
The lyrics can be interpreted as a nostalgic ode to a simpler time, and a desire to hold on to childhood memories and the comforts of home. It speaks to the universal longing for connection and a sense of belonging. It may also speak to the cultural history of the American South, with its associations with cotton production and slavery.
