Y'all heard the story, whippin' that old TB
Punchin' and a-swingin', whippin' that old TB
I'm here to tell ya, TB is whippin' me
I used to have a mama who thought the world of me
I used to have a mama who thought the world of me
Her love vanished when I took this old TB
I went to see my doctor, he thumped upon my back
I went to see the doctor and he thumped upon my back
He said, "Boy, you're travelin' down a one-way track"
Strollin' down the street, found a fortune tellin' man
Strollin' down the street, found a fortune tellin' man
I said, "Boy, I know my past, tell me my future if you can"
My lungs are rattlin', you oughta hear this cough of mine
My lungs are rattlin', you oughta hear this cough of mine
That doggone bug is workin' overtime
Listen, mama, you know I can't last long
Listen now, mama, you know I can't last long
You'll be sorry, honey, honey, when I'm gone
