rube1	Lyr Req: Waiting for You (Mississippi John Hurt) (5)	Lyr Add: WAITING FOR YOU (Mississippi John Hurt)	23 Dec 00
WAITING FOR YOU-John Hurt from "Last Sessions" LP Will you be faithful to me? Is your heart good and true? While you sow sorrow and pain, Darling, I'm waiting for you. Because of your cruel ways, I may never live to know. In justice to my true love, I'll give you before I go. Repeat first two verses Repeat first verse Break If we cannot meet again Till our troubles all are through, Beyond the river of Jordan, I'll still be waiting for you. Repeat second verse (chorus) When you seek my grassy mount, Then our trouble all is through. My days have been shortened Whilst I've been waiting for you. Because of your cruel ways, I may never live to know. In justice to my true love, I'll give you before I go. I think this is accurate. I always used to think he was saying, "I'll kill you before I go," but that's not it. Hope this helps. There's an earlier thread about Mississippi John Hurt with a lot more info if you know how to find it. I don't. HTML line breaks added. --JoeClone, 23-Jul-02.
