Lonesome Graveyard-Lightnin' Hopkins

Sleep on, sleep on, sleep on Little girl, sleep on, just sleep on Sleep on, sleep on, Little girl, just sleep on, sleep on Well I know you're dead and resting darling, but one day I know the graveyard's gonna be my home (every living people got to die, human beings) Mama was rocking by the window, Howling: my poor child is dead, yes she's dead Yeah you know my poor child is dead and gone (What made me feel so good, she said this:) Sleep on, sleep on son, Do you know your mother is coming on? Whoa the graveyard ain't too beautiful, But it will give you a home so long. I wouldn't mind dying, Po' Lightnin' would just have to lay dead so long Wouldn't mind dying, But I'd have to lay dead so long That I wouldn't have a chance to come back here and tell my friends, No nobody, what is going on. Told my baby, don't worry if I die, darling, I know I'm gonna leave your little bed warm Don't worry if po' Lightnin' lay down and die, 'Cause I'm gonna leave your little bed very warm Whoa you know, I can't worry when I'm dead and gone, but one thing, Little girl, I know you is coming home.
