One-Man Nan, a gal from Alabam,
Never loved but Good Man Sam,
Good Man Sam slipped off the levee one day;
He fell into the river, then he faded away;
When One-Man Nan got the news,
She started down the road and sang these weary blues:
I`m going down to the levee
Where the water`s heavy,
Gonna find my good man Sam,
I made a vow when I got him,
That I`d never drop him,
When he was in a jam.
Somebody told of Sam`s sinkin`,
That`s my cup,
It`s gonna be my place to pick him up.
I`m going down to the levee
Where the water`s heavy,
Gonna find my good man Sam.
One-Man Nan,
Levee-bound,
Keeps slip-sloppin` on the ground,
Ripped up trees,
Roots and all,
Just like a cannon ball;
She outran her shadow,
Left it far behind,
Got it runnin` sideways
Just to keep from flyin`,
Folks for miles round about,
Heard old Nanny shout:
I`m going down to the levee
Where the water`s heavy,
Gonna find my good man Sam,
I made a vow when I got him,
That I`d never drop him,
When he was in a jam.
Somebody told of Sam`s sinkin`,
That`s my cup,
It`s gonna be my place to pick him up.
I`m going down to the levee
Where the water`s heavy,
Gonna find my good man Sam. Send " One Man Nan" Ringtone to your Cell
