The last kind word I hear my daddy say, lord
The last kind word I hear my baby say

If I die, if I die in the German War
I want you to send my body, send it to my mother-'n-law

What you do, to me baby, it never gets out of me
I here I am, 'cross the deep blue sea

When you see me comin' look 'cross the Rich man's field
And if I don't bring you flowers, I'll bring you bolted meal

If I get killed, ’f I get killed please don't bury my soul
I cried just leave me out, let the buzzards eat me whole

And the Mississippi River, you know it's deep and wide
I can stand right here, see my face from the other side

I told my baby, to the gun of the sun
a city black train don't come, gonna be some walkin' done

My momma told me just before she died
Lord my senseless daughter, stay young and wild

The last kind word I heard my baby say
Lord, the last kind word I heard my daddy say
