lyrics

GONE TO THE SPIRITS BLUES
Oh he changed me
He took my sex away
Those white devils
Wouldn’t let me play
All their rules and regulations
Tethered emancipations enslaved

I ain’t a woman
I ain’t a woman no more
No I buried her
Below the forest floor
You can call me what you want to
But I ain’t a woman no more

I am Gone-To-The-Spirits now
Oh he made me
Just like him self
But I can see the why’s and how’s
My visions and my boughs brushed down the way

I am Gone-To-The-Spirits now
