Lyrics

Oh, we call the sun ol' Hannah (well, well, well)
Blazing on my head (blazing on my head)
Yes, we call the sun ol' Hannah
And her hair is flamin' red
Why don't you go down, ol' Hannah? (Well, well, well)
Don't you rise no more (don't you rise no more)
If you come up in the mornin'
Bring judgment sure
Well, I look at ol' Hannah (well, well, well)
She was turnin' red (she was turnin' red)
Well, I look at my partner
He was almost dead
Partner said, "If you get lucky (well, well, well)
Or make it on your own (or make it on your own)
Please, go down by Julie's
Tell her I won't be long"
Partner kept sayin' I was a good man (well, well, well)
But they drove me down (but they drove me down)
Yes, I was a good man
But they drove me down
Well, it looks like everything (well, well, well)
Everything I do (everything I do)
Oh yes, it looks like everything
I do is wrong
