Follow Me Down |
| My mama told me |
| My sister too |
| Said, 'The Shreveport women, son, |
| Will be the death of you' |
| Said to my mama, |
| 'Mama, you don’t know |
| If the Fannin Street women gonna kill me |
| Well, you might as well let me go' |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down |
| By Mr Tom Hughes town |
| I went to my mama |
| Fell down on my knees |
| Said, 'Oh, mama, won’t you forgive me, please?' |
| She started to cry |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down |
| By Mr Tom Hughes town |
| I got a woman |
| Lives on Stony Hill |
| She used to sit down and gamble with |
| Mr Buffalo Bill |
| He’s a bad man |
| You got a woman |
| Gamble with Buffalo Bill |
| Two chances in one, babe, |
| You ain’t done got killed |
| She started to cry |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down |
| By Mr Tom Hughes town |
| I got a woman |
| Lives back of the jail |
| Makes an honest livin' |
| By the wigglin' of her tail |
| Cry for me |
| Anyone should ask you |
| Who made up this song |
| Tell 'em Huddie Ledbetter |
| Done been here and gone |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down, |
| Follow me down |
| By Mr Tom Hughes town |
