Death Valley Blues-Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup

Death Valley Blues - Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup I went down in Death Valley Among the tombstones and dry bones I went down in Death Valley Among the tombstones and dry bones That's where poor me will be Lord when I'm dead and gone Now if I should die I should die before my time Now if I should die I should die before my time I want you to bury my body Down by that Frisco line Now bury me mama Low down in the sand Now bury me mama Low down in the sand Now bury me mama Where I won't bother your next old man Oh bye bye baby I said goodbye Oh bye bye baby I said goodbye Death Valley is my home Mama I want to die Tell all the women Please come dressed in red Tell all the women Please come dressed in red They going down Sixty One Highway That's where the poor boy he fell dead Wear your patent leather slippers Mama put out your morning gown Wear your patent leather slippers Put out your morning gown You going to follow poor Crudup Down to his burying ground
