  • Jackson on a high hill, mama, Natchez just below
  • Jackson on a high hill, mama, Natchez just below
  • I ever get back home, I won't be back no more
  • Oh, my mama's gettin' old, her head is turnin' gray
  • My mama's getting old, her head is turnin' gray
  • Don't you know it'll break her heart,
  • know, my livin' this-a way?
  • Ever woke up in the mornin', jinx all around your bed?
  • Ever woke up in the mornin', jinx all around your bed?
  • (spoken: Children, I know how it is, baby)
  • Turned my face to the wall and I didn't have a word to say
  • No use a-hollerin', no use a-screamin' and cryin'
  • No use a-hollerin', no use a-screamin' and cryin'
  • For you know you got a home, mama, long as I got mine
  • Hey, Lord have mercy on my wicked soul
  • Oh, Lord have mercy on my wicked soul
  • (spoken: You know I wouldn't mistreat you!)
  • I wouldn't mistreat you, baby, for my weight in gold
  • Oh, goin' away, baby, don't you wanna go?
  • I'm goin' away, mama, don't you wanna go?
  • (spoken: I know you wanna go, baby!)
  • Take God to tell when I'll be back here anymore
