Lucille 歌词

I can still recall that call telling me to come home I knew right then that the end wouldn’t be long So I packed my bags and I got my ass on the first thing headed down the road Praying to God not to rob this world of Lucille’s soul Lord wont you take me away, just so my Lucille can stay Lord wont you take me away, just so my Lucille can stay I guess the stress of years of pain finally taken its toll And I suppose none of us know when its our time to go But I know that time wasn’t on my side when that ride took much too long Cause all I heard when my feet hit the curb was ‘Lucille’s gone’ Lord wont you take me away, just so my Lucille can stay Lord wont you take me away, just so my Lucille can stay Jesus, Joseph, Mary and Moses…even Deacon James I’ve come today to pray that you save Lucille in our father’s name The Lord never heard a word as true as what I’m bout to say Don’t let her die before she wakes and my soul is yours to take It’s been some years and that’s the last I don seen of the south Ain’t no reason for keeping Mississippi in my heart now When my god mama died, I cried but I won’t shed no mo tears She’s always in my heart, no need to fear Lord wont you take me away, just so my Lucille can stay Lord wont you take me away, just so my Lucille can stay
