3. Rev. Gary Davis: Come Down to See Me Some Time

COME DOWN TO SEE ME SOME TIME

Come down to see me some time,
Eat your bread before you come, bring your dinner in your hand,
Get out before suppertime.

I went down to Nappy's house, Nappy was gone to bed,
I hugged and kissed old Nappy's wife and that killed old Nappy dead.

Well Brother Rabbit come to my house, thought he come to see me,
When I come to find it out, he tried to [per]suade my wife to leave me.

Well Brother Rabbit come to my house, I treated Brother Rabbit well,
I slipped Brother Rabbit around the house and I give Brother Rabbit hell.

I had a little bag and it was gold, all the strings was twine,
All the little songs I used to sing, I wished that girl was mine.
