Geeshie Wiley - Last Kind Word Blues (Alternate Take 2) lyrics

Artist: Geeshie Wiley

album: Presenting Geeshie Wiley


The last kind word I heard my daddy say
Lord, the last kind word I heard my daddy say
If I die, if I die in the german war
I want you to send my body, send it to my mother, Lord
If I get killed, if I get killed, please don't bury my soul
I prefer just leave me out, let the buzzards eat me whole
When you see me comin', look 'cross the rich man's field
If I don't bring you flower, I'll bring you bolted meal


I went to the depot, I looked up at the stars
Cried, some train don't come, there'll be some walkin' done
My mama told me just before she died
Lord, precious daughter, don't you be so wild
The Mississippi river, you know it's deep and wide
I can stand right here, see my babe from the other side
What you do to me, baby, it never gets outta me
I may not see you after I cross the deep blue sea
