Parchman Farm Blues Lyrics

Judge give me life this mornin' down on Parchman Farm (2x)

I wouldn't hate
it so bad, but I left my wife in mourn



Oh, goodbye wife, all you
have done gone (2x)

But I hope some day, you will hear my lonesome
song



Oh listen you men, I don't mean no harm (2x)

If you
wanna do good, you better stay off old Parchman Farm



We got to
work in the mornin', just at dawn of day (2x)

Just at the settin' of the
sun, that's when the work is done



I'm down on Parchman Farm, but I
sho' wanna go back home (2x)

But I hope some day I will overcome
