The Natchez Burnin'

Did you ever hear about the burnin'

That happened way down in Natchez, Mississippi town?

Did you ever hear about the burnin'

That happened way down in Natchez, Mississippi town?

Tall buildin' got to burnin'

There's my baby layin' on the ground

Charlotte Jones was there

Luiza was there

Rosie Mae was there

Louise was there

Did you ever hear about the burnin'

That happened way down in Natchez, Mississippi town?

I stood back, was lookin'

And the old buildin' done tumble down
