Well, I've had my fun
If I don't get well no mo'
Well, I've had my fun
If I don't get well no mo'
Go my head to spinnin'
And I'm going down slow
Please write my mother
Tell 'er the shape I'm in
Please write my mother
Tell her the shape I'm in
Tell her to pray for me
Forgive me of these sins
Don't send no doctor
He won't do no good
Don't send no doctor
He won't do no good
'Cause it's all my fault
Didn't do the things I should
(harmonica & instrumental)
Well, I'm driftin' and stumblin'
Like a ship out on the sea
Well, I'm driftin' and stumblin'
Like a ship out on the sea
I ain't got nobody
To care for me.
