Lyrics

The last kind words I heard my daddy say<br>
Lord, the last kind words I heard my daddy say<br>
"If I die, if I die in the German war"<br>
"I want you to send my body, send it to my mother, Lord"<br>
"If I get killed, if I get killed, please don't bury my soul"<br>
"I prefer you leave me out, let the buzzards eat me whole"<br><br>

When you see me comin' look 'cross the rich man's field<br>
If I don't bring you flour, I'll bring you bolted meal<br>
I went to the depot, I looked up at the sun<br>
Cried, some train don't come, there'll be some walkin' done<br><br>

My mama told me just before she died<br>
"Lord, precious daughter, don't you be so wild"<br>
The Mississippi River, you know it's deep and wide<br>
I can stand right here, see my babe from the other side<br><br>

What you do to me, baby, never gets out of me<br>
I may not see you after I cross the deep blue sea
