Georgie Buck is dead
    The last thing he said
    "Don't put no shortnin' in my bread."

    Georgie Buck is dead
    The last thing he said
    "Don't put no shortnin' in my bread."

    Down the road
    Down the road I see
    Trouble in my way
    Trouble in my way
    Trouble in my way down the line.

    Georgie Buck is dead
    Last word he said
    "Don't let a woman have her way.
    "If she have her way,
    she be gone all day.
    Don't let a woman have her way."

    Whoah!
    Down the line
    Down the line
    Down the line I see
    Trouble in my way
    Trouble in my way
    Trouble in my way down the line.

    Georgie Buck is dead
    The last word he said
    "Don't put no shortnin' in my bread."
    Put no shortnin in my bread...
    Put no shortnin' in my bread...

    Down the line
    Down the line
    Down the line I see
    Trouble come my way
    Trouble come my way
    Trouble in my way down the line.
