Lyrics
I have been up, Lord, Lord, I've been down Feel like I'm headed to that burying ground I've been up, Lord, Lord, I've been down Feel like I'm headed to that cold burying ground I told you once, baby, I told you twice I ain't the kind of man who'll be a sacrifice I been bent and I been broken So bent and broken that I didn't feel no pain Told you once, twice, three times over Told you there's a devil child up upon my shoulder Don't stand in my shadow, woman, don't you shake my tree Don't rattle my chain, girl, and don't you Judas me So far up, Lord, so far down Long black car to drive me to that burying ground I've seen things could make a grown man cry Been so high, I couldn't get no higher Call for the doctor, I feel like I'm dying Call for the doctor, now I know I'm bound to die I stayed awake for six nights running I've been awake six nights in a row Now I can see them, six white horses Come to take me where I sure don't wanna go I been down, down to the jailhouse I been down, down to the church I been down so deep in darkness So far down in darkness that the sun don't ever shine I've been up, Lord, Lord, I've been down Feel like I'm headed to that ice cold burying ground Baby, please tell my brothers Tell them that I'm sorry for the things that I have done And baby, please take this letter Take it to my father when I'm in the burying ground I've been up, Lord, Lord, I've been down Feel like I'm headed to that cold burying ground I've been up, Lord, Lord, I've been down Feel like I'm headed to that ice cold burying ground Been up, been down Feel like I'm headed to that burying ground So far up, Lord, so far down Feel like I'm headed to that ice cold burying ground
