Death Bell Blues Songtext
von R.L. Burnside

Sound like to me I can hear this morning people
Death bells ringing all in my ear
Sound like to me I can hear this morning people
Death bells ringing all in my ear
Yea, know they say I gotta leave on a chariot
Wonder what kind gon′ take me away from here
Yea, know my mother told me
My father told me too
Said one morning son that chariot is
Comin' for you and I′ve been wonderin'


What kind of chariot
Oh Lord, gon' take me away from here
Yea, know the life I′ve been livin′ people
Oh Lord, for a good many year
Tell me the Lord forgive a black man
For most any ol' thing he do
Tell me the Lord forgive a black man
For most any ol′ thing he do
Yea, knowin' I′m one of those kind of people
I believe he will forgive me too
