Church Bell Tone

John Lee Hooker

[Verse 1]
People I thought I heard, I thought I heard
Heard them church bell tone
Well, I thought I heard, I heard, thought I heard this mornin'
Thought I heard the church bell tone
It might be tonin' for my baby, my baby she been mighty low

[Verse 2]
Way down, way down in shady land
Way down, way down, way down in shady land
There's two great white horses
They gonna drive my baby away
Well, two, two great white horses
Comin' to drive my baby to the buryin' ground

[Verse 3]
Gonna take her down to her buryin' ground
I hate to see the two great white horses comin'
That ol' hearse gonna back up to the door

[Verse 4]
I know I heard, I know I heard
I know I heard, a church bell tone this mornin'
Hmm, I know I heard, heard the church bell tone
I said, "Bye bye, baby, bye bye, baby
I know we'll never meet again
We'll never meet no more
Goodbye, baby, goodbye darlin'"
