Blind Willie McTell - Cooling Board Blues (Live) Lyrics

Lyrics Cooling Board Blues (Live) - Blind Willie McTell



Undertaker, undertaker, please take it slow
You′re takin' the one I love, won′t bring her back no more
Don't a man feel bad, when his baby's on the coolin′ board
Don′t a man feel bad, when the hearse pulls up to his door
Undertaker, undertaker, don't drive so fast,
Seem like every minute going to be my last
I tried to help her, people, I did all that I could,
One out of a million who meant me any good
When I walked up to her bedside, her breath was gettin′ low
She looked at me and said, "Honey, I can't love you no more"
My heart struck sorrow, my tears falling down,
Watching my baby settled into the ground
Said I walked up to where they′re throwing dirt in Ella's face
Wanted to jump into her grave and take her place
I realize I won′t see my girl again,
Swear to God I loved her, she was my only friend
