Lyrics
I got a letter this morning
This is the way my letter read
I got a letter this morning
This is the way my letter read
Come on home, Eddie Waters
To tell me your baby's dead
I start to write
But I believe I'll go myself
No, I ain't gonna write
I believe I'll go myself
A letter too slow
To tell me a telegram may get there
I hate to go home this morning, boy
There'll be a crowd of people
Standing out before my baby's house
There'll be a crowd of people
Standing out before my baby's house
And everybody will be wondering
What in the world all this racket about
Yeah
Said I wasn't going
To my baby's burial ground
No, I ain't going
To my baby's burial ground
I was standing right there
When the gravedigger let her down
