Solo

Well I once knew a man

He worked in a mine

Well he never saw the sun

But then he never stopped trying

And then one day, that old man, he up and he died

Yeah, he up and he died

He up and he died

Well he wanted to fly, and the only way to fly was to die

Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Lord, I'm gonna die

Lord, I'm gonna die

Short solo

There's a high flyin' bird, way up in the sky

I wonder if she looked down as she flies on by?

Just gliding, so free and easy, in the sky

Look at me here

I'm just rooted like a tree here

I got that sit-down, can't cry

Oh, Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Lord, I'm gonna die blues

I know I'm gonna die

I'm gonna die blues........
