Killing Floor
By Dalton Domino

A
Oh black bird won’t you sing my song, Blackbird sing a song for me.
My soul can sway, my body hangs, underneath her sycamore tree.
A
Oh her ghost won’t let me be she keeps a calling out my name
A
I’m going send the evil woman straight to hell when I set this house up in flames
                                   D
When I set this house up in flames
Chorus
A
Old black bird won’t you sing my song while they take my soul away
I hear the devil calling out howling, St. Peter just sealed my fate
D
I once had a lover but I caught her with another now she don’t come 
              G
around no more
A                                    G           D
Oh Black bird won’t you sing my song while I wait on the killing 
A
floor.

River’s gonna rise even under moon light, Shake em up you can’t hide from me.
I’m gonna make you live a life on the run for taking away Emily. 	 
A
Go on dig her six feet down and add my bones with the rest.
A
As God as mine when this list’s fever pitch god could raise the dead.
                             D
Lord he could raise the dead.

Chorus
Old black bird won’t you sing my song while they take my soul away
I hear the devil calling out howling, St. Peter just sealed my fate
D
I once had a lover but I caught her with another now she don’t come around no more
A                                    G           D
Oh Black bird won’t you sing my song while I wait on the killing 
A
floor.
Oh send her to hell
Gonna take me swimming in my heavy boots so I can breathe her pretty dark blue
Just let me sink in my Mississippi so I can forget about you.

Chorus
Old black bird won’t you sing my song while they take my soul away
I hear the devil calling out howling, St. Peter just sealed my fate
D
I once had a lover but I caught her with another now she don’t come around no more
A                                    G           D
Oh Black bird won’t you sing my song while I wait on the killing 
A
floor.
          G           D                    A
While I wait, While I wait, on the killing floor.
