Old Jim killed Lula
On a Friday night
Old Jim killed Lula
On a Friday
On a Friday night, Lord
Old Jim got ninety
Steam got ninety-nine
Old Jim got ninety
Steam got ninety
Steam got ninety-nine
Lord, Lord
Ten thousand people
At one buryin' ground
Ten thousand people
At one buryin'
At one buryin' ground
Lord, Lord
Just to see undertaker
Let po' Lula down
Just to see the undertaker
Ooh Lordy, old Lula
Take old Lula down
Well, the church bell ringin'
Hease went drivin' slow
Well, the church bell ringin'
Well, went drivin'
Hearse went drivin' slow
Lord, Lord
I hate so bad, Lord
Keep old Lula all gone
I hates her bad ass
Sleep on Lula
Sleep on Lu - la.
