Papa Harvey Hull France Blues Lyrics

Have you ever took a trip : baby on the Mobile Line
That's the road to ride baby : ease your troubling mind

Well I got a letter baby : this is the way it read
Come home come home baby : because your love is dead

Well I packed my suitcase : bundled up my clothes
When I got there : she was laying on the cooling board

Well I took my baby : to the burying ground
You ought to heard me hollering : when they let her
down

Well there's two black horses : standing on the burying
ground
When I turned around : these big tears run on down

When you go to heaven : going to babe going to stop by France
Going to stop by there : just to give these girls a
chance

Baby when I die : don't bury daddy at all
Well pickle daddy's bones : baby in alcohol

Well the boat's up the river : baby and she won't come
down
Well I believe to my soul : baby boat is water bound

Baby when I die : put daddy's picture in a frame
So where daddy's going : you can see him just the same

Hello heaven : daddy want to give you a telephone
So you can talk to your daddy :any time when he's gone
