Natchez Fire (Burnin') |
Did you read about the fire, 19 and 37 |
Did you read about the fire, 1900 and 37 |
Walter Barnes and his big band |
They was swinging that night |
The building had one door, it was on the side |
The fire broke out late that night |
People was screamin' |
They couldn’t get out |
Everybody runnin', runnin' to the door |
The door got jammed, nobody got out |
All you could hear, crying, Lord have mercy |
Mmm, mmm |
Save me |
Save me |
Save me |
It must’ve been a plan |
A plan from above |
Mmm |
A plan from above |
‘Cause who knows? |
No one was saved |
Not as I know |
Mmm |
Mmm |
The band was swinging |
Late that night |
When the fire broke out |
Natchez |
Natchez, Mississippi |
Mmm |
A great big barn |
A great big barn |
A-many lives was gone down that night |
Mmm |
You never forget |
You never forget |
Mmm, mmm, mmm |
Natchez, Mississippi |
Natchez, Mississippi |
Mmm, mmm |
