death letter blues (1924 recording) - ida cox lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i received a letter that my man was dyin’
i received a letter that my man was dyin’
i caught the first train and went back home flyin’

[verse 2]
he wasn’t dead but, he was slowly dyin’
he wasn’t dead but, he was slowly dyin’
and to think of him i, just can’t keep from cryin’

[instrumental solo]

[verse 3]
i followed my daddy, to the buryin’ ground
i followed my daddy, to the buryin’ ground
i watched the pall bearers, slowly let him down

[verse 4]
that was the last time i saw my daddy’s face
that was the last time i saw my daddy’s face
mama loves you, sweet papa, but i wish i could take your place
