Lord I got a woman, she nice lovin' in every way

Lord I got a woman, she nice lovin' in every way

You know she done died and left me, I have the blues on every Decoration Day



So sorry see you to leave me [sic], I hate to see my baby get away

So sorry to see you leave me, I hate to see my baby get away

I want you to bring me some flowers, about every Decoration Day



Lord I was walkin' round her bedside, these were the last words my baby had to say

Lord walkin' round her bedside, these were the last words my baby had to say

She said bring me some flowers - be sure honey - on every Decoration Day
