lirik lagu sheldon churchyard – larry jon wilson
[spoken]
down in coastal south carolina there’s a very old county, with some very old customs… root doctor people that put spells on, supposedly, and lawmen that lift them off, supposedly. i met a root doctor lady down there that became my friend. met her in an old church ruin, in an old place called the sheldon churchyard
storm p-ssed by in a half-moon sky
i laid by the well to rest my eyes awhile
in sheldon churchyard
sheldon churchyard
i woke in a fright and there in the moonlight
a gullah woman whispered in the night
son… son, what you doin here?
what you doin’ here?
i said i’m so tired of the time i’ve wasted
there’s been no joy in the life i’ve tasted
since i been here
since i been here
can you help me put an ending
to the ten-cent life i’ve been spending
‘fore i come here
she said that you been seeking fortune and fame, son
our two problems ain’t the same, son
my nights are spent fighting with the witchman
my days i mostly spend
peeling taters for the rich man
and i come here to dig the sweet mayapple
leave here in a tomb, so grapple
put the root w-nga on the high sheriff
one high sheriff
i opened my eyes in a half-moon sky
and i thought i saw a goat hung high
and i thought i saw a black woman digging in the ground
turn around and wave goodbye
from sheldon churchyard
sheldon churchyard
