Carry Me Home

Hem


We were raised in the nettles 
And they showed us how they grow-- 
Where a poison comes to settle 
And what a poinsoned man comes to know 

So me and Jessie, we left Ohio-- 
Left him bleeding on the valley floor 
I felt so dirty I could hardly stand it-- 
Carrying Jessie on my back 

She said, hold on, I know you'll bury him for me 
Hold on, I know you'll bury him for me 
Hold on, I know you'll carry me and carry me and 
Carry me home 

Tell me nothing's wrong there 
Tell me nothing's wrong there 
Tell me nothing's wrong there 

Nothing's wrong there 
Nothing's wrong there 
Nothing's wrong there
