Goin’ Down Slow

Goin’ Down Slow (Jimmy Oden)
"Going Down Slow" is a song by St. Louis Jimmy that I’ve
recorded before using guitar and rack harmonica. This
time, Fabrizio does all of the harping.
I've had my fun if I don't get well no more
I've had my fun if I don't get well no more
My health is failin' me, you know I'm goin' down slow
Won't you please write my mother, tell her the shape I'm in
Won't you please write my mother, tell her the shape I'm in
Tell her to pray for me and forgive me for my sins
Tell her don't send for no doctor,
you know that doctor can't do me no good
Tell her don't send for no doctor, doctor can't do me no
good
Well, you know it's all my fault, I didn't do the things
that I should
On the next train South, please look for my clothes comin'
home
On the next train South, look for my clothes comin' home
If you don't see my body all you can do is moan
