Song : Parchment Farm
 

(Mose Allison)



I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



Ain't ever done nobody no wrong.











Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my
life.



Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my
life.



Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my
life.



All I did was shoot my wife.



She was no good!











I done picking that cotton in a leather foot
sack.



I done picking that cotton in a leather foot
sack, yes I have.



I done picking that cotton in a leather foot
sack.



A goddamn shotgun at my back.











I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



Ain't ever done nobody no wrong, no!











I done sitting over here on the longest time.



I been sitting over here on the longest time.



I done sitting over here on the longest time.



All I did was drink my wine.











I swear I'll be here for the rest of my life.



Yeah, I know I'll be here for the rest of my
life.



I know I'll be here for the rest of my life.



All I did was shoot your wife.



She was no good, you can take my word for it!











I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm



All I did was shoot my arm.



Oh, no!
