Sonny Terry - Goin Down Slow Lyrics

Lyrics Goin Down Slow - Sonny Terry



I have had my fun if I never get well no more
I have had my fun if I never get well no more
Well, you know my health is failin'
Me and, you know, I'm goin' down slow
Please, write my mother, tell her the shape I'm in
Please, write my mother, tell her the shape I'm in
Tell her to pray for me just forgiveness for my sins
Tell her don't send no doctor, doctor can't do Sonny Terry no good
Tell her don't send no doctor, doctor can't do old Sonny no good
Well, you know it's all my fault,
You know, I didn't do anything that I should
Oh, you know, I didn't man
On the next train South please look for my clothes on
On the next train South please look for my clothes on
Well, I say, mother if you don't see my body all you can do is moan
Mother please, please, please don't worry, this is all in my prayer
Mother please, please, please don't worry, this is all in my prayer
Well, you can say your son is gone, yes, out of this world somewhere
Bye-bye, mama
