Goin' Down Slow

Yes I've had my fun

If I don't get well no more

Yes I've had my fun, baby

If I don't get well no more

You see I have this pain in me

An I'm goin' down slow

Won't somebody please write my mother

Tell her the shape I'm in

Please write my mother

Tell her 'bout the shape I'm in

Tell her to pray for me

Tell her to forgive my sin

Tell her don't send no doctor

Yes a doctor can do me no good

Yes no doctor mama

Doctor can do me no good

But you see through all of my trials

I never did all the things I could

On the next train south

Baby you can look for my...

On the next train south

Mama, you can look for...

Yes now if you see my baby baby

Yes you know I'm dead and gone
