Oh Lord Jesus, make me some cornbread.
Oh Lord Jesus, make me some cornbread.
If you don't all the blood will rush in my head.

I knew Mary Jacob, baby she died last year
I knew Mary Jacob, baby she died last year
Went to see her grave, man my heart was filled with fear.

Went down to the river, called your name one more time
Went down to the river, called your name one more time
Oh lord, I'm outta my mind.

Oh Lord Jesus, jesus won't you call my name
Oh Lord Jesus, jesus won't you call my name
Talking to a bottle to relieve my pain.

Hotel lord, hear my prayer.
I knew someone else, please call my name
Her lips were still red and her blood was still warm, just feel the pain.
