Going Down Slow Songtext
von Dee Dee Bridgewater

I′ve had my fun
If I don't get well no more
I′ve had my fun people
If I don't get well no more
My health is feeling kinda funny
Well, I think I'm going down slow
Please write my mother
Tell her the shape I′m in
Somebody write my mother
Please tell her the shape I′m in
Tell her to pray for me people
Well, please forgive me for all my sins
I'm on the next train south
You can look for my clothes at home
I′m on that next train south
Gone look for my clothes back home
If you don't see my body
All you can do is moan
If you see my father Tell him please don′t waste no tears
If you see my father
Tell him please, please, please, please, daddy don't waste no tears
I′ve been living so fast and reckless
Lord, I know that's shortened, shortened up my years
I've had my fun
If I don′t get well no more
I′ve had my fun people
If I don't get well no more
My health is failing me
And I′m going down slow
Oh, my health is feeling kinda funny
I'm going down slow
My health is failing me
And I′m going down slow
Y'all better look out
I don′t want you ending up like me
Uh, uh, uh
