Parchman Farm Blues - Bukka White

Judge gimme me life this morn'in

Down on Parchman Farm

Judge gimme me life this morn'in

Down on Parchman Farm

I wouldn't hate it so bad

But I left my wife in mournin'

Four years goodbye wife

Oh you have done gone

Ooh goodbye wife

Oh you have done gone

But I hope someday

You will hear my lonesome song yeah

Oh you listen you men

I don't mean no harm

Oh-oh listen you men

I don't mean no harm

If you wanna do good

You better stay off old Parchman Farm yeah

We go to work in the mo'nin

Just a-dawn of day

We go to work in the mo'nin

Just a-dawn of day

Just at the settin' of the sun

That's when da work is done yeah

Ooh I'm down on old Parchman Farm

I sho' wanna go back home yeah

I'm down on the old Parchman Farm

But I sho' wanna go back home yeah

But I hope someday I will over come
