Peetie Wheatstraw - Hearse Man Blues lyrics

Artist: Peetie Wheatstraw

album: Peetie Wheatstraw Vol. 7 1940-1941


I wired my baby some flowers
Thinkin' I wouldn't get there in time
I wired my baby some flowers
Thinkin' I wouldn't get there in time
The next telegram I received
Ooh well well, that my baby was dyin'
I walked around the casket
And looked down in my baby's face
I walked around the casket
Looked down in my baby's face
Then I was soon only wonder
Ooh well well, what good woman would take her place?
The church bells began to tone
Hearse wheels was rollin' slow
The church bells began to tone
Hearse wheels was rollin' slow
They are taking my baby to a place
Ooh well well, where I won't see her no mo'
Hearse driver, Mr. Undertaker
Mr. Hearse man, please drive slow
Hearse driver, Mr. Hearseman
Mr. Hearseman, please drive slow
Where you are takin' my baby?
Ooh well well, now I swear we all just got to go
Then I watched the undertaker
Slowly, let her down
Then I watched the undertaker
Slowly, let her down
If my baby don't go no further
Ooh well well, I know she's six feet in the ground
