Ida Cox Coffin Blues
Daddy oh daddy : won't you answer me please
All day I stood by your coffin : trying to give my poor
heart ease
I rubbed my hands over your head : and whispered in your
ear
And I wonder if you know : that your mama's near
You told me that you loved me : and I believed what you
said
And I wished that I could fall : here across your coffin
dead
When I left the undertakers : I couldn't help but cry
And it hurts me so bad : to tell the man I love goodbye
