Lyrics
0:28The last kind words I heard my dad say
0:37Lord the last kind words
0:41I heard my daddy say
0:48If I die if I die in the German war
0:57I want you to send my body
1:01Send it to my mother Lord
1:08If I get killed if I get killed
1:12Please don't bury my soul
1:17I prefer just leave me out
1:21Let the buzzards eat me whole
1:47When you see me coming
1:51Look across the rich man's field
1:56If I don't bring you flowers
2:00I'll bring you bolted meal
2:07I went to the deadbolt
2:10I looked up at the stars
2:15Cried some train don't come
2:19There'll be some walking done
2:26Well my mama she told me
2:30Just before she died
2:35Lord my precious daughter
2:39Don't you be so wild
3:05The Mississippi River
3:09You know way it's deep and wide
3:14I can stand right here
3:17See my babe from the other side
3:24What you do to me baby
3:28It never gets out of me
3:33I may not see you after
3:37I cross the deep blue sea
The last kind words I heard my dad 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 prefer just leave me out Let the buzzards eat me whole When you see me coming Look across the rich man's field If I don't bring you flowers I'll bring you bolted meal I went to the deadbolt I looked up at the stars Cried some train don't come There'll be some walking done Well my mama she told me Just before she died Lord my precious daughter Don't you be so wild The Mississippi River You know way 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 out of me I may not see you after I cross the deep blue sea
