Write Me A Few Lines - Mississippi Fred McDowell

Lord when you home baby

Please write me a few of yo' lines

Lord when you home baby

Sit down and write me a few of yo' lines

Lord that a be consolation

Oh lord mama to my worrying mind

Lord I left my baby

Standing in her back door crying

Lord I left my baby

Standing lord in her back door crying

Lord I never felt so sorry lo'd

Honey 'till she said 'good bye'

Lord I'm going down to the river

I'm 'on sit down on the ground

You know I'm going down to the river baby

I'm 'on sit down on the ground

I'm 'onna let the waves of water

Lord be to wash my trouble down
