"Waiting For You" lyrics - MISSISSIPPI JOHN HURT
Will you be faithful to me?
Is your heart good and true?
While's in sorrow, and in pain
Darlin' I'm waiting for you
Because of your cruel ways I may never live to know
And justice too, my true love, I can give you before I go
Will you be faithful to me?
Is your heart good and true?
While's in sorrow, and in pain
Darlin' I'm waiting for you
Because of your cruel ways I may never live to know
And justice too, my true love, I can give you before I go
[Humming]
If we cannot meet again
Till our trouble all is through
Beyond the river of Jordan
I'll still be waiting for you
Because of your cruel ways I may never live to know
And justice too, my true love, I can give you before I go
[Humming]
When you see my grassy mount
Then our trouble all's through
My days have been shortened
While's I've been waiting for you
Because of your cruel ways I may never live to know
And justice too, my true love, I can give you before I go
