Sterling Brown - Southern Road lyrics

"Southern Road" By Sterling A. Brown Swing dat hammer--hunh-- Steady, bo'; Swing dat hammer--hunh-- Steady, bo'; Ain't no rush, bebby, Long ways to go. Burner tore his--hunh-- Black heart away; Burner tore his--hunh-- Black heart away; Got me life, bebby, An' a day. Gal's on Fifth Street--hunh-- Son done gone; Gal's on Fifth Street--hunh-- Son done gone; Wife's in de ward, bebby, Babe's not bo'n. My ole man died--hunh-- Cussin' me; My ole man died--hunh-- Cussin' me; Ole lady rocks, bebby, Huh misery. Doubleshackled--hunh-- Guard behin'; Doubleshackled--hunh-- Guard behin'; Ball an' chain, bebby, On my min'. White man tells me--hunh-- Damn yo' soul; White man tells me--hunh-- Damn yo' soul; Got no need, bebby, To be tole. Chain gang nevah--hunh-- Let me go; Chain gang nevah--hunh-- Let me go;Po' los' boy, bebby, Evahmo' . . .
