slippery st. paul

down along the river

where the big bulrushes grow

you find the old frog jumpin the water

he won't come up no more

babe

he won't come up no more

baby

he won't come up no more

woo

he won't come up no more

sugar mama

he won't come up no more

smell that burnin' fire

baby

burnin' in the sand

see that devil rise

mama

he sho' wanna take yo' hand

now

he sho' wanna take yo' hand

baby

he sho' wanna take yo' hand

woo

he sho' wanna take yo' hand

sugar mama

he sho' wanna take yo' hand

oh

harvest moon

keep shinin' your light down on me

the lord reach out his hand

my soul floats out to thee

i don't feel no pain

when they shot me down

lay my body out

baby

they put me in the ground so cold

they put me in the ground

baby

they put me in the ground

woo

they put me in the ground

sugar mama

they put me in the ground
