The night went on when all is still We pull the bodies from the solid ground They drag them out and pull theyr teeth out And sell them next day on the market place Yesterday I came to your door I came to pray but pretty soon I found that you were not over there I cried for you We'll meet you soon on the solid ground I know I'll meet you in the solid ground I tried to find you but it would not do The snakes were lying the dogs were too I took to whiskey I took to gin I took it to Bourbon I took it all in But now I know I'm not bound to sleep All day long I get the midnight creeps I cried for you We'll meet you soon in the solid ground I know I'll meet you in the solid ground
