Bukka White - Parchman Farm Blues lyrics

Judge gimme me life this morn'in Down on Parchman Farm Judge gimme me life this morn'in Down on Parchman Farm I wouldn't hate it so bad But I left my wife in mournin' Four years, goodbye wife Oh you have done gone Ooh, goodbye wife Oh you have done gone But I hope someday You will hear my lonesome song, yeah (guitar & washboard) Oh you, listen you men I don't mean no harm Oh-oh listen you men I don't mean no harm If you wanna do good You better stay off old Parchman Farm, yeah We go to work in the mo'nin Just a-dawn of day We go to work in the mo'nin Just a-dawn of day Just at the settin' of the sun That's when da work is done, yeah Ooh, I'm down on old Parchman Farm I sho' wanna go back home, yeah I'm down on the old Parchman Farm But I sho' wanna go back home, yeah But I hope someday I will over come. (washboard & guitar to end) ~
