Lyrics:

Well I've had my fun if I don't get well no more
Well I've had my fun if I don't get well no more
Yeah my head is spinning, and I'm going down slow

Please write my mother tell her the shape I'm in
Please write my mother tell her the shape I'm in
Tell her to pray for me, forgive me for my sins

Tell her don't send me no doctor he won't do me no good
Tell her don't send me no doctor he won't do me no good
[I said] it's all my fault, did do things I shouldn't have..(chris)

Mother, please don't worry this is only my prayer
Mother, please don't worry this is only my prayer
Just say you son is gone, out of this world somewhere

** In Other version**
[On that next train south mother - You can look for my clothes on
On that next train south mother - You can look for my clothes on

Drifting and stumbling like a ship out on the sea
Driftin and stumblin like a ship out on the sea
I aint got nobody
To care for me]
