And you tell that big-hat man Oh, if you go down yonder, down yonder And you tell that big-hat man Tell 'em I'm a-so tired a-these black molasses Wit' that teddy bear standin' on a cane Well, down in L'ousiana Way down yonder behind the sun Well, down yonder in L'ousiana Way down behind the sun Seem like to me that's where all-a my My trouble first begun Now, some come here for ninety And some come here for ninety-nine Lord, some men come for ninety Some come here for ninety-nine But Lord, I come here to stay Just as long as the sun shine Now, captain, captain, ooh A-what's the matter that I can't see? Captain, captain, captain What's the matter I can't - I got a lifetime sentence, here Please, please be light on me. ~
