Gonna Write Me a Letter (with Francesco Turrisi)
by Rhiannon Giddens, Francesco Turrisi
on There Is No Other
Lyrics
Gonna write me a letter
Gonna send it by the foam

Gonna send it to my baby
Gonna beg him to come home

Said he wanted for me to marry
My pa, he said no

Said that he didn't like him
Said that he would have to go

He's gone
He's gone
He's gone

So I followed him to the river
Watched him sail away on the foam

Now he's left me here broken hearted
Broken hearted and all alone

He's gone
He's gone
He's gone
He's gone

Gonna write me a letter
Gonna send it by the foam

Gonna send it to my baby
Gonna beg him to come home

Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home
