Lyrics
[Intro]
Momma did not like me
Daddy did not like me
Momma did not like me
Daddy did not like me
[Verse 1]
Well, Old Man River
I knew it was time to go
We met a long time ago
I knew it was time to go
Hunchback stranger
I knew it was time to go
Floatin' dead animals
I knew it was time to go
Speaking unholy
I knew it was time to go
I ain't had nowhere to go
I knew it was time to go
Creeping up slowly
I knew it was time to go
Staring out they window
I knew it was time to go
[Chorus]
I said, no, I said no more crying
My daddy didn't leave me a goddamn biscuit
I said, no, said no more crying
My daddy didn't even leave me a goddamn biscuit
[Verse 2]
Yeah, Old Man River
I knew it was time to go
From a long time a go
I knew it was time to go
Staring at the river boats
I knew it was time to go
Watching dead, black flowers
I knew it was time to go
Drowning in the deep end
I knew it was time to go
We tried to look away, but
I knew it was time to go
Now, we're living with strangers
I knew it was time to go
Trying to reach a higher ground
[Chorus]
I said, no, I said no more crying
My daddy didn't leave me a goddamn biscuit
I said, no, no, no, I said no more crying
My daddy didn't even leave me a goddamn biscuit, biscuit, come on
[Refrain]
Momma did not like me
Daddy did not like me
Momma did not like me
Daddy did not like me
[Verse 3]
Well, Old Man River
I knew it was time to go
We met a long time ago
I knew it was time to go
Pox-marked stranger
I knew it was time to go
Running with the Devil now
I knew it was time to go
Everybody told me
I knew it was time to go
About the backstabbing traitor
I knew it was time to go
It's something unholy
I knew it was time to go
You're creeping up slowly
[Chorus]
I said, no, I said no more crying
My daddy didn't even leave me a goddamn biscuit
Oh, no, no, no, no, I said no more crying
My daddy didn't even leave me a goddamn biscuit
[Outro]
Momma did not like me
Daddy did not like me
La-da-la-la-la-la
