lyrics

Go down, Miss Becky. Don’t you come back again
Til’ I find me a penny, ‘til you find a friend
Gonna raise my hammer to work on the railroad line
Well I’ve been mistreated Lord, and I don’t mind dyin’

Won’t you give it up becky, you been no good to me
Won’t you give it up Becky the day you set me free
Oh give it up Becky, ‘til you feel I’m feelin’ fine
Won’t you give it up Becky, you’re no longer mine

Back in Savannah where the sycamore bloom
If I better die happy, it’ll be too soon
Where the women fancy and the water runs red
If I come back crawlin’, you’d kill me dead

Scared of running with the water-well dry
Ain’t goin’ nowhere ‘til sweet by and by
I found your number with the telephone in hand
Well, you take my love and give it to another man
