Going Down Slow Songtext
von Mance Lipscomb

Well I done had my fun, if I don′t get well no more
Yes I done had my fun, if I don't get well no more
My health is failin′ me, Lord I'm goin' down slow

I want you to write my mother tell her the shape I′m in
I want you to write my mother tell her the shape I′m in
Tell her to pray for me, forgiveness for my sin


Mama don't send no doctor, he can′t do no good
Mama don't send no doctor, he can′t do no good
It's all my fault now mama, I didn′t do the things I should

Next train south, look for my clothes on
Well next train south, mama, look for my clothes on
You don't see my body, all you can do is moan

Mama, please don't worry, this is all in my prayer
Mama, please don′t worry, cause this is all in my prayer
You know your son is dead gone, I just went somewhere
