death letter blues - 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 plane and went home flyin’

[verse 2]
when i got there, the folks had gathered around
when i got there, the folks had gathered around
his eyes was set and his face was full of frowns

[verse 3]
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 help from cryin’

[verse 4]
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 5]
that was the last time i saw my daddy’s face
that was the last time i saw my daddy’s face
mama love you, sweet papa, but i wish i could take your place
