| One Kind Favor | Let's Work Together | On The Road Again |


One Kind Favor (Blind Willie Mc Tell)

There is one kind favor I ask of you
There is one kind favor I ask of you
Well there is one kind favor I ask of you
That you see that my grave is kept clean
There's two white horses in a line
There's two white horses in a line
There's two white horses in a line
Gonna take me down to my buryin' ground
Do you ever heard a coffin sound
Do you ever heard a coffin sound
Do you ever heard a coffin sound
Did you know that the poor boy is in the ground

You can dig my grave with a silver spade
You can dig my grave with a silver spade
You can dig my grave, with a silver spade
You may lay me down with a golden chain
If you ever hear a church bell toll (note 1)
If you ever hear a church bell toll
If you ever hear a church bell toll
Then you know that the poor boy's dead and gone
It's a long long way ain't got no end
It's a long long way ain't got no end
It's a long long way ain't got no end
It's a bad way, bad don't ever change

Let's work together (Wilbert Harrison)

Together we'll stand - divided we'll fall-
Come on now people let's get on the ball and work together
Come on come on-let's work together, now now people
Because together we will stand every boy and a girl and man-.

Before when things go wrong - as they sometimes will
When the road you travel it's been all up hill
Let's work together, come on, come on, let's work together
You know together we will stand every boy, girl, woman and man.

Oh well now two or three minutes, or two or three hours
What does it matter now if this time was lost
Let's work together, come on come on, let's work together now now people.
Because together we will stand ev'ry boy ev'ry woman and man.

Oh well now make someone happy, make someone smile
Let's all work together and make life worthwhile
Let's work together, come on, come on, let's work together
Now now people, because together we will stand ev'ry boy, girl, woman and man.

On The Road Again

Well I'm so tired of cryin' but I'm out on the road again - I'm on the road again.
Well I'm so tired of cryin' but I'm out on the road again - I'm on the road again.
I ain't got no woman just to call my special friend.

 

And I'm going to leave the city, got to go away.
I'm going to leave the city, got to go away.
All this fussing and fighting, man I sure can't stay.

You know the first time I travelled out in the rain and snow - in the rain and snow.
You know the first time I travelled out in the rain and snow - in the rain and snow.
I didn't have no fellow not even no place to go.

And my dear mother left me when I was quite young - when I was quite young.
And my dear mother left me when I was quite young - when I was quite young.
She said "Lord have mercy on my wicket son".

---Break---

Take it here from me mama please don't you cry no more - don't you cry no more.
Take it here from me mama please don't you cry no more - don't you cry no more.
Cause it's soon one morning down the road I'm gone.
But I ain't going down that long and lonesome road - all by myself.
But I ain't going down that long and lonesome road - all by myself.
I can't carry you baby, gonna cry somebody else.
