Sold my baby, to the old slow river

Got the cold blue shiver,

But she don't remember

All the tear-stained letters,

You be good to her.

I won the best fucking bet in town,

I told my girl that I been sleeping around.

I couldn't see her,

but I met her in the dark with her

clothes hung loose

so I piled them on the floor.

I was a ghost of a lover to you,

I let you make up all this shit

that was never true

I couldn't see you so I left you in the dark.

I was sick with you (x4)

finger picking sorts itself out towards the end - just listen to recording.

once you get the timing right this piece rules - one of the main reasons i am going

my horrid des ark phase at the moment. hope it goes okay!
