1
Caleb Myer he lived alone in them hollering pines
2
He made a little whiskey for himself
3
Said it helped pass the time
4
Long one evening in the back of my house
5
Caleb come around
6
He called my name till I went out
7
With no one else around
8
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
9
Wear them rattling chains
10
When I go to sleep at night don't you call my name
11
Where's your husband, Nellie Cane
12
Where's your darling gone?
13
Did he go on down the mountain side
14
And leave you all alone?
15
My husband's gone to bowling green
16
To do some business there
17
And Caleb threw that bottle down
18
Grabbed me by my hair
19
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
20
Wear them rattling chains
21
When I go to sleep at night don't you call my name
22
He threw me in the needle bed
23
Across my dress he lay
24
Pinned my hands above my head
25
And I commenced to pray
26
I cried, "My God, I am your child
27
Send your angels down"
28
Then feeling with my finger tips
29
The bottle neck I found
30
I drew that glass across his neck
31
Fine as any blade
32
Then I felt his blood run hot and fast
33
Around me where I laid
34
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
35
Wear them rattling chains
36
When I go to sleep at night don't you call my name
37
Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna
38
Wear them rattling chains
39
When I go to sleep at night don't you call my name
