Ponce de Leon Lyrics



I'm goin' down to Ponce

That's where I'll be found

Down to Ponce

That's where I'll be found

Gonna see my dear mother

Six feet underground



This easy livin' be the death of me

This easy livin' be the death of me

You can bury me

By that sweetgum tree



I'm gonna drink from that water flowin' from the stone

Drink from that water flowin' from the stone

And that mister consumption

Maybe he'll leave me alone



And I say aw



See that black cat climb that white oak tree

See that black cat climb that white oak tree

When she come down put that bad luck on me



I'm goin' down to Ponce

That's where I belong

Down to Ponce

That's where I belong

Cause that Chestnut Ridge woman

She done me wrong



And I say aw
