Spinal Meningitis Got Me Down (Live at the Vic Theatre, Chicago, IL, November 8 & 9, 2003)

This is a blues

You know, this is Chicago

Why they wanna see my spine, mommy

Why they wanna see my spine?

It's gonna hurt again, mommy

Much worse than last time

Am I gonna see God, mommy

Am I gonna die?

It really hurts, mommy

Am I gonna die?

Smile on, mighty Jesus

Spinal meningitis got me down

Smile on, mighty Jesus

Spinal meningitis got me down

I'm feelin' greasy, mommy

Please don't let me die

Stinky vaseline, mommy

Please don't let me die

Am I gonna see God, mommy

Am I gonna die?

It really hurts, mommy

Am I gonna die

Smile on, mighty Jesus

Spinal meningitis got me down

Smile on, mighty Jesus

Spinal meningitis got me down
