Cypress Grove |
| I would rather to be buried |
| In some cypress grove |
| I would rather to be buried |
| In some cypress grove |
| Than to have a contrary woman |
| Lord, I never can control |
| And when yo' knee bones |
| Go to achin' |
| An your body gettin' cold |
| When yo' knee bones |
| Go to achin' |
| And yo' body gettin' cold |
| You know, you jes' gettin' ready |
| Honey, for some cypress grove |
| Then I would rather be buried |
| Six feet in the clay |
| Then I would rather to be buried |
| Six feet in the clay |
| Then to be way up here |
| In New York City |
| Honey, treated this’t-a-way |
| An I will drink muddy water |
| I’ll sleep in a hollow log |
| I will drink muddy water |
| Sleep in a hollow log |
| Befo' I stay up here |
| Honey, treated like a dog |
| Yes, I’m goin' away |
| Honey, don’t you want to go? |
| Yes, I’m goin' away |
| Honey, don’t you wants to go? |
| I’m scared to go back down south |
| Them people goin' kill me, sho' |
| I’m gonna sing this song |
| An I ain’t goin' to sing no mo' |
| I’m goin' to sing this song, an I |
| I ain’t goin' to sing no mo' |
| Because my time has done got precious |
| Baby, Lord, just got |
