____________American Ballads and Folk Songs
Here for de res' of my nachul life, An' all I ever done is kill my wife.
* * * I went up-a in Tennessee, Two HP womens got stuck on me, One was name Sal and the other name Sue, They was a-hustlin' an' I was too.
Oh, dey beat me up an' dey beat me down, Oh, dey beat me up-a an' dey beat me down, ' Oh, dey beat me up an' dey beat me down, Betcha five dollars dey cain' beat me to town.
PO> LAZ'US (POOR LAZARUS)*
