INTRO SOLO
I went to the doctor, up the street
I sat right down and he looked at me
He said, "I hate to tell you but you come disease.
You ain't got nothin' but them old T.B.s."
REFRAIN: And I mmmm, T.B.s is killing me
I used to have friends, but none of them that I can see
Now, mmmm
Mmmm
REFRAIN: Mmmm, T.B.s is killing me
And it won't be long, 'fore some lonely graveyard I'll be
I had a good girl an' a happy home
But since T.B. got me she's left me all alone
REFRAIN: Said now, mmmmm, T.B.s is killin' me
And it won't be long, before some lonely graveyard I'll be
SOLO
Now boys, these days and I'm just hangin' on
And it won't be long before I'll be gone
REFRAIN: Said now, mmm, T.B.s is killin' me
And it won't be long, before some graveyard I will be
