Gone Dead On You Blues

[Verse 1]
Mmmmmm, mailman's letter brought misery to my head
Mmmmm, brought misery to my head
I got a letter this morning, my pig-meat mama was dead

[Verse 2]
I jumped this fast mail rattler, almost went a-flyin'
I jumped this fast mail rattler and I almost went a-flyin'
Hurry engineer-man, for my pig-meat mama is dyin'

[Verse 3]
Go to the telephone and I pull the receiver down
Go to the telephone, pull the receiver down
"Hello Central, won't you please ring Doctor Brown?"

[Verse 4]
Mmmmmmm, "Central, what's the matter now?
Mmmmmmm, "Central, what's thе matter now?"
I rang so hard, can't get no doctor no how

[Verse 5]
"Oh, doctor, doctor, what shall a good man do?
Oh, doctor, doctor, what shall a good man do?"
Says, “your girl ain't dyin' but she's donе gone dead on you"
