1990年代、スウェーデンのグループ Rednex (レッドネックス) が歌った、Cotton-Eyed Joe (コットンアイドジョー) をカタカナにしました。
（曲名は、コットンアイジョーと呼ばれることが多いですが、コットン・アイド・ジョーと表記されることもあります）。
Cotton-Eyed Joeは、19世紀のアメリカ南部で生まれた民謡、フィドルやバンジョーに合わせて踊れるダンス曲として親しまれていたものを、レッドネックスがユーロダンス風にアレンジ、世界的な大ヒットとなりました。古いフォークの響きと現代的なビートが融合したこの曲は、スポーツイベントやパーティーを盛り上げる定番ナンバーです。

★意訳
もしもコットンアイジョー
なんて奴がいなければ
とっくの昔に結婚してただろう
いったいどこから来て
どこへ消えたんだ？
コットン・アイ・ジョー
お前はいったい何者だ？
冬の嵐みたいに
町に突然あらわれて
野原を駆け抜ける姿は
たくましくて見事
目つきが武器 笑顔は銃
けれど求めていたのは
ただの遊びだった
行く先々で災いをもたらし
娘たちの心を
ズタズタに壊していった
みんな逃げ隠れして
誰にも知られぬように
残されたのは
男たちの嘆きだけ
コットン・アイ・ジョーのせいで
★Cotton-Eyed Joe lyrics
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from?
Where did you go?
Where did you come from,
Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
He came to town
like a mid-winter storm
He rode through the fields
so handsome and strong
His eyes was his tools
and his smile was his gun
But all he had come for was havin' some fun
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
He brought disaster
wherever he went
The hearts of the girls was to
hell broken sent
They all ran away so nobody would know
And left only men 'cause of Cotton-Eyed Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe
I'd been married a long time ago
Where did you come from? Where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe?
