You're Gonna Quit Me Lyrics

This is an old traditional song possibly from the south. A chain gang song perhaps.
is off the 1992 album Good As I've Been To You. Its a really nice song. I believe his
is tuned down a whole step. So all the strings should be one step lower.
You're gonna quit me baby
Good as I've been to you lawd lawd
Good as I've been to you lawd lawd
Good as I've been to you
Take my money honey
Buy you shoes and clothes lawd lawd
Buy you shoes and clothes lawd lawd
Buy you shoes and clothes
You're gonna quit me baby
Put me out of doors lawd lawd
Put me out of doors lawd lawd
Put me out of doors
(INSTRUMENTAL VERSE)
Six months on the chain gang
Believe me it ain't no fun lawd lawd
Believe me it ain't no fun lawd lawd
Believe me it ain't no fun
You're gonna quit me baby
Thats the day you die lawd lawd
Thats the day you die lawd lawd
Thats the day you die
Jailhouse ain't no play thang
Believe me it ain't no lie lawd lawd
Believe me it ain't no lie lawd lawd
Believe me it ain't no lie
You're gonna quit me baby
Thats the day you die lawd lawd
THats the day you die lawd lawd
Thats the day you die
(INSTRUMENTAL VERSE)
