Going Down Slow
St. Louis Jimmy (Oden)
Key <Bb>
Bluebird Records 1942
I have had my fun
If I don't get well no more (x2)
My health is fading and I'm going down slow
Please write to my mother
Tell her the shape I'm in (x2)
Tell her to pray for me
Forgive me for my sins
Tell her don't send no doctor
Doctor can't do no good (x2)
It's all my fault
Didn't do the things I should
On the next train south
Look for my clothes horn (x2)
If you can't see my body
All you can do is moan
