I`ve had my fun if I don`t ever get well no more
I`ve had my fun if I don`t ever get well no more
I know my health is failing me now
I know I`m goin` down slow
Won`t somebody write my mother and tell her the shape I`m in
I want somebody to writet my mother and tell her the shape I`m in
I want you tell her to pray for me
Ask her to forgive me for all my sins
Mother please don`t send me no doctor
a doctor can`t do me no good
I don`t want you to send me no doctor now
a doctor just can`t do me no good
Back when I was a young boy oh
I just didn`t do the things I should
