Go Down Old Hannah

Go Down Old Hannah

(album: Swing Dat Hammer - 1960)

Oh, we call the sun ol' Hannah
Blazing on my head
Yes, we call the sun ol' Hannah
And her hair is flaming red

Why don't you go down, ol' Hannah
Don't you rise no more
If you come up in the morning
Bring judgment sure

Well I look at ol' Hannah
She was turning red
Well I look at my partner
He was almost dead

Said if you get lucky
Or make it on your own
Please go down by Julie's
Tell her I won't be long

Kept saying I was a good man
But they drove me down
Yes, I was a good man
But they drove me down

Well, it look like ev'rything
Ev'rything I do
Yes, it looks like ev'rything
I do is wrong
