[N]
[G] [D]
Good, give me life this morning, down on Parchman Falls.
Good, give me life this morning, down on Parchman Falls.
I went to Haiti so bad, but I left my wife and my home.
Oh, goodbye wife, all you have done gone.
Oh, goodbye wife, [Dm] all you have [D] done gone.
But I hope someday you will hear my lonesome song.
Oh, listen you men, I don't mean no harm.
Oh, listen you men, I don't mean no [G] harm.
If you [D] want to do good, you better sell for Parchman Falls.
We go to work in the morning, just to dawn of day.
[Dm] We go to work in the morning, just to dawn of day.
[D] Just to send a peace on death, when the work is done.
I'm down on old Parchman Falls, I sure want to go back home.
[Dm] I'm down on old Parchman Falls, but I sure want to go back [G] home.
But I hope someday I will overcome.
