3 Days and 3 Nights

I ain't slept for three days and three nights
My little girl, my little girl
She's slipping, she's slipping away
I said "Don't worry, don't worry!"
If I fall, if I fall asleep
Ohhh Jesus, Jesus will hold your hand, hold your hand baby

I went to the hospital
I said the doctor, I said the doctor wouldn't even let us in
Laid my little girl down
I said "Don't worry, don't worry!"
Cause heaven, heaven would let us in

I went, I went to the banker
He wouldn't he wouldn't even give me fifteen pieces of gold
I ain't slept, I ain't slept, slept for three days and three nights
My little girl, my little girl is slipping away
Ohhh my little girl is slipping away
My little girl, my little girl, my little girl
Slip, slip, slipping
Slipping, slipping away
My little girl, my little girl, my little girl
Slip, slip, slipping
Slipping, slipping away
