Parchment Farm Lyrics

(Mose Allison)

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

Ain't ever done nobody no wrong.

Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my life.

Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my life.

Oh Lord, I bet I'll be here for the rest of my life.

All I did was shoot my wife.

She was no good!

I done picking that cotton in a leather foot sack.

I done picking that cotton in a leather foot sack, yes I have.

I done picking that cotton in a leather foot sack.

A goddamn shotgun at my back.

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

Ain't ever done nobody no wrong, no!

I done sitting over here on the longest time.

I been sitting over here on the longest time.

I done sitting over here on the longest time.

All I did was drink my wine.

I swear I'll be here for the rest of my life.

Yeah, I know I'll be here for the rest of my life.

I know I'll be here for the rest of my life.

All I did was shoot your wife.

She was no good, you can take my word for it!

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

I been sitting over here on Parchment Farm

All I did was shoot my arm.

Oh, no!
