Caleb Meyer
Caleb Meyer, he lived alone
In them hollarin' pines
Then he made a little whiskey for himself
Said it helped pass the time
Long one evening in back of my house,
Caleb come around
And he called my name 'til
I went out with no one else around
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna wear them rattlin' chains. but when
I go to sleep at night,
Don't you call my name
Where's your husband,
Nellie Kane
Where's your darlin gone?
Did he go down off the mountain side and leave you all alone?
Yes, my husband's gone to
Bowlin' 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 rattlin' 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 feelin' with my fingertips, the bottle neck
I found I drew that glass across his neck as fine as any blade, and
I felt his blood pour fast and hot around me where
I laid. Caleb
Meyer, your ghost is gonna wear them rattlin' chains.
But when I go to sleep at night,
Don't you call my name
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna wear them rattlin' chains.
But when I go to sleep at night,
Don't you call my name
