Fixin’ to Die (Booker White cover) Songtext
von Bukka White

Feeling funny in my mind, Lord
I believe I′m fixing to die
Feeling funny in my mind, Lord
I believe I'm fixing to die

Well, I don′t mind dying
But I hate to leave my children crying

Well, I look over yonder to that burying ground
Look over yonder to that burying ground
Sure seems lonesome, Lord
When the sun goes down


Feeling funny in my eyes, Lord
I believe I'm fixing to die, fixing to die
Feeling funny in my eyes, Lord
I believe I'm fixing to die

Well, I don′t mind dying but
I hate to leave my children crying

Well there′s a black smoke rising, Lord
It's rising up above my head, up above my head
Well there′s a black smoke rising, Lord
It's rising up above my head
And tell Jesus make up my dying bed

I′m walking kind of funny, Lord
I believe I'm fixing to die, fixing to die
Yes I′m walking kind of funny, Lord
I believe I'm fixing to die, fixing to die, fixing to die

Well, I don't mind dying
But I hate to leave my children crying
