Ain’t it hard
Ain’t it hard
Ain’t it hard

Ain’t it hard
Ain’t it hard
Ain’t it hard

Ain’t it hard
Ain’t it hard
Man but you know it’s true
You can love some woman and they don’t love you

Sometime Sometime Sometime
Sometime I thinks my babes too good to die
Sometime I think
My babe too good to die
Then again she should be buried live

Wonder where my friend done gone
Wonder where my friend done gone
Went away in the Fall
Didn’t come back home at all
Why you runaway and you stay so long

Got a mother and father both dead and gone
My mother and father both dead and gone
Got a mother and father both dead and gone
And they left me in this wide world alone

Well the last word I heard mamma say
When she laying on her dying bedside
Well the last word I heard my mother said before she died
Son I don’t want you to grieve and cry

There’s one more kind favor I ask of you
One more kind favor I ask of you
When I’m dead son and sleeping in the ground
Would you see to my grave kept clean

When I’m dead and gone dead and gone
I want you to dig my grave wide and deep
In two threes four just to let me down
And someone to sing a song
