The last kind words, I heard my daddy say
Lord, the last kind words, 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 want you to send my body, send it to my mother, Lord

Oh
I prefer to live me out. Let the bother eat me whole, eat me whole
When you see me come in look rather Richmond's view
And if I don't bring you flour I'll bring you a bottle of ale
Ah
I went to thevoynter

Dual
I looked up at the stars, I cried
Some train don't come, there'll be some walking down
My mama told me, just before she died
No, my precious daughter, don't you be so wild
Don't you be so wild
The Mississippi river, you know it's deep and wild
I can't stand rain
See my bed from the other side
What she do to me, baby
It never, it never gets out of me
I may not see you after I cross the deep blue sea
The last kind words I heard
My mama told me, just before she died
My daddy say, Lord, the last kind words
I, I heard my daddy say
I heard my daddy say
