Furry's Blues

I believe I'll buy me a graveyard of my own Believe I'll buy me a graveyard of my own I'm gonna kill everybody that have done me wrong If you wanna go to Nashville, mens, ain't got no fare Wanna go to Nashville, mens, ain't got no fare Cut your good girl's throat and the judge will send you there I'm gonna get my pistol, forty rounds of ball Get my pistol, forty rounds of ball I'm gonna shoot my woman just to see her fall I'd rather hear the screws on my coffin sound I'd rather hear the screws on my coffin sound Then to hear my good girl says, "I'm jumpin' down" Get my pencil and paper, I'm gonna sit right down Get my pencil and paper, I'm gonna sit right down I'm gonna write me a letter back to Youngstown This ain't my home, I ain't got no right to stay This ain't my home, I ain't got no right to stay This ain't my home, must be my stoppin' place When I left my home, you would not let me be When I left my home, you would not let me be Wouldn't rest content until I come to Tennessee
