Georgie Buck

(album: Doc Watson - 1964)

Georgie Buck is dead
The last thing he said
"Don't put no shortning in my bread"

Georgie Buck is dead
The last thing he said
"Don't put no shortning in my bread"

Down the road
Down the road I see
Trouble in my way
Trouble in my way
Trouble in my way down the line

Georgie Buck is dead
Last word he said
"Don't let a woman have her way
"If she have her way
She be gone all day
Don't let a woman have her way"

Whoah!

Down the line
Down the line
Down the line I see
Trouble in my way
Trouble in my way
Trouble in my way down the line

Georgie Buck is dead
The last word he said
"Don't put no shortning in my bread"
Put no shortnin in my bread...
Put no shortning in my bread...

Down the line
Down the line
Down the line I see
Trouble come my way
Trouble come my way
Trouble in my way down the line
