๐ Lyrics
Caleb Meyer he lived alone
In them hollering pines
And he made a little whiskey for himself
Said it helped to pass the time
Long one evening in back of my house
Caleb come around
And he called my name till I went out
With no one else around
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
"Where's your husband Nellie Kane
Where's Your darling gone?
Did he go on down the mountainside
And leave you all alone?"
"Yes my husband's gone to Bowling Green
To do some business there"
Then Caleb threw that bottle down
And grabbed me by my hair
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
He threw me in the needle bed
Across my dress he lay
Then he pinned my hands above my head
And I commenced to pray
I cried my God I am your child
Send your angels down
Then feeling with my finger tips
The bottle neck I found
I drew that glass across his neck
Fine as any blade
Then I felt his blood pour fast and hot
Around me where I laid
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
In them hollering pines
And he made a little whiskey for himself
Said it helped to pass the time
Long one evening in back of my house
Caleb come around
And he called my name till I went out
With no one else around
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
"Where's your husband Nellie Kane
Where's Your darling gone?
Did he go on down the mountainside
And leave you all alone?"
"Yes my husband's gone to Bowling Green
To do some business there"
Then Caleb threw that bottle down
And grabbed me by my hair
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
He threw me in the needle bed
Across my dress he lay
Then he pinned my hands above my head
And I commenced to pray
I cried my God I am your child
Send your angels down
Then feeling with my finger tips
The bottle neck I found
I drew that glass across his neck
Fine as any blade
Then I felt his blood pour fast and hot
Around me where I laid
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna
Wear them rattling chains
But when I go to sleep at night
Don't you call my name
