Here's a version from Missouri in the early 1900's: The Play-Party in Northeast Missouri by Goldy M. Hamilton

WEEVILY WHEAT.

This is like Mrs. Ames's version.

1. Across the field of barley,
      . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
      . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
    . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Chorus
I won't have none of your weevily wheat,
I won't have none of your barley;
It takes some flour for about one hour
To bake a cake for Charley.

2. O Charley he's a nice young man,
Charley he's a dandy;
For every time he goes to town
He treats the girls on candy.

3. Oh, who's been here since I've been gone
Across the fields of barley?
A pretty little girl with a red dress on,
Over the fields of barley.

4. The higher up the cherry-tree,
The riper grew the cherries;
The sooner the boy courts the girl,
The sooner they will marry.

5. If I'd been here, and she'd been gone,
Across the field of barley,
I'd been sure to a-tried it on
Across the field of barley.

This fifth stanza was contributed by Mr. Wilson, a student from Monroe County.
