caleb meyer - peter mulvey lyrics
[chorus]
caleb meyer, your ghost is gonna
wear them rattlin’ chains
when i go to sleep at night
don’t you call my name
caleb meyer, your ghost is gonna
wear them rattlin’ chains
when i go to sleep at night
don’t you call my name
[verse 1]
caleb meyer, he lived alone
in them hollerin’ pines
and he made a little whiskey for himself
said it helped to pass the time
[verse 2]
long one evening in back of my house
caleb come around
and he called my name ’til i come out
there was no one else around
[verse 3]
where’s your husband, nellie kane?
where’s your lover gone?
did he go on down the mountainside
and leave you all alone?
[verse 4]
yes, my husband’s gone to bowlin’ green
to do some business there
then caleb threw that bottle down
and grabbed me by the hair
[guitar solo]
[verse 5]
he threw me down in a needle bed
across my dress he lay
then he pinned my arms above my head
and i commenced to pray
[verse 6]
i cried, “my god, i am your child
send your angels down”
then feelin’ with my fingertips
the bottle neck i found
[verse 7]
i drew that glass across his throat
fine as any blade
then i felt his blood inch hot and fast
around me where i lay
[chorus]
caleb meyer, your ghost is gonna
wear them rattlin’ chains
but when i go to sleep at night
don’t you call my name
caleb meyer, your ghost is gonna
wear them rattlin’ chains
when i go to sleep at night
don’t you, don’t you call my name
