Well hey mama now did you ever go down on
Down on the Mobile Line
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout the Mobile Line
Well it`s a road to ride to ease your troublin` mind
Well I got a letter, now this is the way it read
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout the way it read
Said come home baby because your lover is dead
Well I ran out and I hopped out on the road
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout on the road
When I got there she was laying on a coolin` board
Now when I die mama don`t you bury papa at all
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout your papa at all
Just throw my bones down in some alcohol
And when I die mama put my picture in a frame
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout a picture in a frame
Hang it up on the mantle you can see me just the same
And when I die I think I`m gonna stop by France
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout a stop by France
Gonna stop by France just to give all the women a chance
Well hey mama now did you ever go down on
Down on the Mobile Line
Hey lordy mama, mama, hey lordy papa, papa
Holler `bout the Mobile Line
Well it`s a road to ride to ease your troublin` mind
Well it`s a road to ride to ease your troublin` mind
