Parchment Farm Lyrics

(Mose Allison)

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 Ain't ever done nobody no wrong.

 

 

 Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my life.

 Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my life.

 Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my life.

 All I did was shoot my wife.

 She was no good!

 

 

 I done picking that cotton in a leather foot sack.

 I done picking that cotton in a leather foot sack, yes I have.

 I done picking that cotton in a leather foot sack.

 A goddamn shotgun at my back.

 

 

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 Ain't ever done nobody no wrong, no!

 

 

 I done sitting over here on the longest time.

 I been sitting over here on the longest time.

 I done sitting over here on the longest time.

 All I did was drink my wine.

 

 

 I swear I'll be here for the rest of my life.

 Yeah, I know I'll be here for the rest of my life.

 I know I'll be here for the rest of my life.

 All I did was shoot your wife.

 She was no good, you can take my word for it!

 

 

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

 All I did was shoot my arm.

 Oh, no!
