Bessie Smith |
I said oh oh, Bessie Smith why do you hang your head so low? |
I would die in heaven just to meet your soul. |
I said oh oh, Bessie Smith why do you hang your head so low? |
I would die in heaven, I would die in heaven just to meet your… |
Shot to the ego boy it’s where this knife runs through, |
Three wise men call Bessie down for a dual, |
Shot to the ego boy it’s where this knife runs through, |
Three wise men call Bessie down for a dual. |
I said oh oh, father lay me down, |
Down on this sunken ground, |
I said oh oh, father lay me down, |
Down on this sunken ground. |
But she’s got a crucifix hidin' way down in this pit, oh If you wish to call her out, |
Call her with your bravest shout, |
I said oh oh, father lay me down, |
Down on this sunken ground, |
I said oh oh, father lay me down, |
Down on this sunken ground. |
I said oh oh Bessie Smith why do you hang your head so low? |
I would die in heaven, I would die in heaven, I would die in heaven just to meet your soul. |
