Doc Watson - Sweet Heaven When I Die lyrics

Beefsteak when Im hungry, whiskey when Im dry. Greenbacks when Im hard-up and sweet heaven when I die. Verse 1: When I was down in that old jailhouse my friends just walked on by. Nobody came round to see about me an I couldnt help but wonder why. Choirs Break Verse 2: Pappy was a ramblin man, he gambled from town to town. Im gona be a rambler boys, aint never gona settle down. Choirs Break Verse 3: Hold me when Im sad and blue, oh baby, kiss me when I cry. All I want is a pretty little girl to love me til the day that I die, Choirs End: Sweet heaven when I die.
