Suicide Blues - Leroy Carr/Scrapper Blackwell
If somebody finds me
When I'm dead and gone
If somebody finds me
When I'm dead and gone
Say I did self murder
I died with my boots on
Took me a Smith and Wesson
And blew out my brains
Took me a Smith and Wesson
And blew out my brains
I didn't take no poison
I couldn't stand the strain
No I ain't no coward
And I'll tell you why
No I ain't no coward
And I'll tell you why
I was just tired of living
But wasn't afraid to die
Take me to the graveyard
Put me in the ground
Take me to the graveyard
Put me in the ground
Please write on my tombstone
My woman threw me down
In my farewell letter
Someone's sure to find
In my farewell letter
Someone's sure to find
Goodbye old cruel world
I'm glad I left you behind
