Natchez Burning

Did you ever hear about the burnin'
That happened way down in Natchez Mississippi town
Did you ever hear about the burnin'
Happened way down in Natchez Mississippi town
The old buildings started burnin'
There’s my baby layin' on the ground
Charlotte Jones over there
Luiza over there
Rosie Mae over there
Louise was there
Did you ever hear about the burnin'
That happened way down in Natchez Mississippi town
I stood back, was lookin'
And once the old building come tumblin' down
The old buildings started burnin'
There’s my baby layin' on the ground
