Muddy Waters - The Chess Box

Going Down Slow - Live

I have had my fun
If I don't get well no more
I have had my fun
If I don't get well no more

My health is failing me
"I'm telling you now, yeah"
And I'm going down slow

Please write to my mother
And her the shape I'm in
Please write to my mother
And tell her the shape I'm in

Tell her to pray for me
To forgive me for my sins
Tell her don't send no doctor
Doctor can't do me no good
Tell her don't send no doctor
The doctor can't do me no good

Tell her It's all my fault
I didn't do the things that I should

On the next train south
Look for my clothes on
On the next train south
Look for my clothes on

Well if you don't see my body
All you can do is moan

Muscians

Mother, please don't worry:
This is all in my pride
Mother, please don't worry:
This is all in my pride

Just say your son is gone
Out of this world somewhere
