Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
He came to town like a midwinter 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 having some fun
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago

Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye 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-Eye Joe
If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe
I'd been married long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?

Tommy is quite possibly the most ridiculously talented musician of our time, he is the essence of creativity and musicianship. So inspiring.
Growing up in the Deep South of the United States, this version cracked me up. It’s great! It is a staple for every small town party.

Been very close friends with and employee for Anders for the last 6 years. My first instinct was to instantly send this to him. Then it hit me again... He would have absolutely loved this as he was a metalhead to the core.
Tommy, thank you!!! It's so nice that you fulfilled our request. You are the best. I'm sure it will be fun. You are a real treasure.😁❣👍
Tommy, you make this world HAPPY! You are so enjoyable and AMAZING! 😂 Keep spreading Love and Happiness! ✌️❤️😊🌻🙏
God was like "Oh, here we have a random swedish baby! Let's grant it all talents and qualities possible...except for violin!" Another awesome song, Tommy!🫶❤️
Tommy is a genius in music, acting and dont know what. But also he is so FUNNY. I watch and listen him every day and so I am not feeling so lonely. Thank you, Tommy 😂 grandma from Finland ❤

Hmm, why not warm your hearts little bit more, people. This cover kzread.info/dash/bejne/f4yls8Ghe6zfhMY.htmlsi=OZtUNjHBsSA35I7q popped up in my feed last friday early morning out of nowhere, never heard the song before, but that Grandma and her little companion totally got me with the love and simplicity of their performance.

You know it's gonna be a good morning when Tommy releases a new cover video. I had pretty good expectations for this one, seeing as how Cotton-eyed Joe is already a pretty fast jamming little ditty. What I was NOT prepared for, but hysterically happily surprised by, was just how FUNNY he made this video. Now that Tommy has left Sabaton to pursue other musical adventures, he obviously has plenty more time to 'play with himself (selves.....) so yes, it's GREAT FRI-YAY with this hilariously infectious and addictive 'Tommyfied' and 'Johanssonized' version of Cotton-Eyed Joe . Now, excuse we while I go play this one about 50 more times...... Where did you come from? Where did you go?!?!?!?
Whoa. What is happening? Country metal, wow. Brings back memories of dancing to Cotton Eye Joe in the honky tonks of Texas (USA). Never heard the bands play the song this way but I like it! 👍😊 Awesome.
Wow..... Just, WOW.... I am not even sure what to say other than this is amazing. I love the part "I don't know how to play the violin".

Tommy is a beast🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘. He can do anything. But you need to do more songs with that banjo
😂😂😂THIS IS AMAZING! Having (to) grow up with country music (😖) I have heard this song a million times if I’ve heard it once - and I finally love this song! All it needed was a better beat and some ‘metal’ in it! 🤣Excellent performance! WOW, Tommy, I couldn’t love you any more than I do right now! ❤️🔥🤣Thank you.

Hi again Tommy, I just looked up the original. If this was a cover then I had a feeling that it was because I sort of remember it. So I found out it is a swedish song originally and it's country. There's banjo there's techno there's pup. I just watched the video from 1994. That was the time I was a dancer in Las Vegas. It is brilliant. The music is brilliant. The lead singer is brilliant. That girl with those eyes on that black hair is brilliant as is her choice of clothing and physique. I actually for 90s video. Couldn't take my eyes off of it. Love the version and I want to hear more from them and your version. You go to a vocal range that makes me leave my body. You are astounding to me Superman of the music world. I love you. Don't ever stop and don't ever leave us❤❤❤
Right, sooo now that we know there’s so many instruments that Mr Johansson knows how to play: accordion, banjo, (air) drums, keyboard, guitar, I wisely suggest that he starts giving music lessons, who’s with me on this 🤪 ? Cheers from Romania 💙
