(Malone/ Cooley, Hicks, Hood, Malone)



Jupiter mules kickin' out all the stops

Newfangled dogs danglin' stars from her eyelids

She can't read between the lies anymore

Lord, help her rise just one more time if you can.

Still, the children read to her

till she opens up her hands

When my body dies will you remember my name?

When my body dies will you remember my name?

Oh, Mrs. Dubose you were such a flower 

now you're all dead inside withered and insane

Oh, Mrs. Dubose you were such a flower, you got the death,

the dust, and the opium runnin' through your veins

Black maid stays cause she's paid to be around

Condemned and scared for all she knows

You better look at the road when you pass

she gonna fix you with that evil eye

unless your hotdin' your old man's hand

you better pass on by better pass on by
