No More Cane On The Brazos - Eric Bibb

You 'ought to have been here in 19 and 4

You could find a dead body in every road

Down on the Brazos

I wish you was here in 19 and 10

They was drivin' the womens just like they was men

Down on the Brazos

If I had a sentence like ninety-nine and nine

All the dogs on this Brazos could not keep here

Not down on the Brazos

I looked at the sun the sun was turnin' red

You know i looked at my partner man liked to drop down

Down on the Brazos

Go down now Hannah don’t you ride no more

Now if you rise in the morning for any judgement sho'

Down on the Brazos

Ain’t no more cane on this Brazos

They done ground it all to molasses

Down on the Brazos
