Letra

[Verse 1]
Caleb Meyer, he lived alone
In them hollarin' pines
And he made a little whiskey for himself
Said it helped to pass the time
[Verse 2]
Long one evening in back of my house
Caleb come around
And he called my name till I went out
With no one else around
[Verse 3]
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattlin' chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
[Verse 4]
Where's your husband, Nellie Kane
Where's your darling gone?
Did he go on down the mountain side
And leave you all alone?
[Verse 5]
Yes, my husband's gone to Bowlin' Green
To do some business there
Then Caleb threw that bottle down
And grabbed me by my hair
[Verse 6]
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattlin' chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
[Verse 7]
He threw me in a needle bed
Across my dress he lay
Then he pinned my hands above my head
And I commenced to pray
[Verse 8]
I cried My God, I am your child
Send your angels down
Then feelin' with my fingertips
The bottle neck I found
[Verse 9]
I drew that glass across his neck
As fine as any blade
Then I felt his blood pour fast and hot
'Round me where I lay
[Verse 10]
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattlin' chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
[Verse 11]
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattlin' chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
