Ev'r day have been there
|
Long old lonesome day
|
Now don't ya a-hear me talkin', pretty mama?
|
Ev'r day have been
|
Long old lonesome day
|
Cry, it seem like you-ooo would
|
Be there ooo-ooo, same old way
|
|
Cryin', smokestack lightning
|
That bell that shine like gold
|
Now don't ya a-hear me talkin', pretty mama?
|
Ooh, smokestack lightning
|
Bells that shine like gold
|
Cryin', I found my baby
|
Layin' on the coolin' floor
|
|
Don't a hearse look lonesome, mama
|
Rollin' for yo' do'?
|
Now don't ya a-hear me talkin', pretty mama?
|
Don't a hearse look lonesome
|
Rollin' for yo' do'?
|
Cryin' she's gone, tell you-ooo, Lord
|
Won't be-ee-ee back no mo'
|
|
Ooh, stop and listen
|
Hear how those bells in toll
|
Now don't ya a-hear me talkin', pretty mama?
|
Ooh, stop and listen
|
Hear the bell it tolls
|
I had a sweet little faror
|
But she's dead and gone
|
|
Cryin', followed my baby down
|
To the buryin' ground
|
Now don't ya a-hear me talkin', pretty mama?
|
I followed my baby, to the buryin' ground
|
It was afternoon, mama
|
Standing all around you.
