Crow Jane
Skip James

Crow Janie, Crow Janie, Crow Jane, don't you hold you head high

Someday, baby, you know you got to die

You got to lay down and...

You got to die, you got to...

And I wanna buy me a pistol, wants me forty rounds of ball

Shoot Crow Jane, just to see her fall

She got to fall, she got to...

She got to fall, she got to...

That's the reason I begged Crow Jane not to hold her head so high

Someday, baby, you know you got to die

You got to lay down and...

And I dug her grave with s silver spade

Ain't nobody gonna take my Crow Jane place

You can't take her place no, you can't take her...

That's the reason I begged Crow Jane not to hold her head too high

Someday, baby, you know you got to die

You got to lay down and...

You know, I let her down with a golden chain

And every link I would call my Crow Jane's name

Crow Jane, Crow... Crow Jane, Crow...

You know I never missed my water till my well went dry

Didn't miss Crow Jane until the day she died

Till the day she...

That's the reason I begged Crow Jane not to hold her head too high

Someday, baby, you know you got to die

You got to lay down and...you got to die, you got to...

You know, I dug her grave eight feet in the ground

I didn't feel sorry until they let her down

They had to let her down, let her...they had to let her down...

That's the reason I begged Crow Jane not to hold her head too high

Someday, baby, you know you got to die

You got to lay down and...
