Come mama come papa and sit you down by meCome sit you down by me and pity my caseMy poor head is achin' my sad heart is breakin'My body's salvating and hell is my doomPlease send for the preacher to come and pray for meAnd send for the doctor to heal all my woundsMy poor head is achin' my sad heart is breakin'My body's salvating and I'm bound to die
