It's swallow me whole The ground will open up and in fall Down, down,
Mama set me up with a fine thing And he was buy me everything But he the hook and took out for deep water And soon that fish, he pulled me in
It's gonna me home Somewhere in the shadows there's a for me In the cold, cold
Trouble's right behind me there's hard times The devil's got his hammer, poundin' on my bed Lost most my money I'm on my hand I'm knockin' at hell's door with no weapon and no Feelin' kinda timid like an egg without a But if I've been bluffing, I ain't gonna tell
gonna swallow me whole The ground will open up and in fall
Papa set me up a sharp-eyed boy And I was have him for my toy But he stole my heart and took out for water And pretty that shark, he pulled me in
full of lightning the wind's spitting sand Sun burning oh, so hot it the earth a tan The fish all stopped jumping, the bedbugs are asleep I'll lay myself beside you and my soul to keep I wish I had a needle, as fine as I sew I'd stitch my to my side and down the road we'd go
My shovel struck and the tears came running down My struck sorrow and the tears came running down My shovel sorrow and the tears came running down My shovel struck sorrow and the tears running down
fishes in the brook Papa them with a hook clean it like a man fry it in the pan
