Nora Brown - Cinnamon Tree

Darling Cora

Wake up, wake up, my darling
Go run and get my gun
Now, I ain't no man for trouble
But I'll die before I run

Last night, upon my pillow
Last night upon my bed
Got them prison walls around me
Them cold chains on my neck

Well, I never missed my woman
Until the day she died
And I never missed my water
Till the day my spring ran dry

Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow
And lay my darlin' down

Oh, the last time I seen my darlin'
She's a-sittin' on the banks of the sea
With her .44 on her shoulder
And her banjo on her knee

Wake up, wake up, my darlin'
What makes you sleep so sound?
Them highway men are comin'
Gonna burn our still house down
Gonna burn our still house down
