But while I was crossin the river, a bullet from a gun made it's hole.
Chorus
Well my life is slippin away and I don't know how far I can go, But I know I've got to se my new born son.
I'm traveling thru, a place I've never been before
I'm bleeding bad and I don't know if I can go on anymore
Chorus
Well my life is slippin away and I don't know how far I can go, But I know I've got to se my new born son.
My home's in Louisianna, and that's where I've come
I made it here and now I feel my quest is done
Chorus
Well my life is slippin away and I don't know how far I can go, But I know I've got to se my new born son.
Well my life is slippin away and I don't know how far I can go, But I know I've got to se my new born son.
And I won
