Album: Eternal & Lowdown

Weevils

 

 

John the Revelator’s knocking at my door

John the Revelator’s knocking at my door

Got an “O” Resonator made in 1934

 

Weevils in my cotton, crows in my corn

Weevils in my cotton, crows in my corn

You say my Redeemer wears a crown of thorns

 

I know a woman make a freight train moan

I know a woman make a freight train moan

Combs her hair with catfish bones

 

I threw a nickel in a wishing well

I threw a nickel in a wishing well

If I get to heaven time will tell

 

Going where the water taste like wine

Going where the water taste like wine

Water in Texas here taste like turpentine

 

Weevils in my cotton, crows in my corn

Weevils in my cotton, crows in my corn

You say my Redeemer wears a crown of thorns

You say my Redeemer wears a crown of thorns
