Don't Put These Curses On Me

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't curse me with the love of money

It will burn me up and waste my time

Don't curse me with the love of intellect

You know it knots up my brain and makes me think that

you know more than I do

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't curse me with the idea

that work is good and holy

It only took you to the grave with a bitter heart

Don't curse me with this patriotic love

of parents, ideas, country and wife

You invite war into your home

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't put these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on

Don't put these curses, these curses on me oh no you don't

Don't put these curses on
