[DoYouHearTheScoolBus]

[BMZSOUL2]

It's a Negro spiritual

[SunPun360]

An old american spiritual folk song.Leadbelly is not the author.

[ClassicRockStays116]

yeah, just an classic american folk song...i hate how everyone says it's by nirvana, even though i abslutely love them and leadbelly...only covers. author is unknown.

[BleachLiveDive]

Dude that was Kurt's voice I'm sure listen to the song Ain't It A Shame compare the voices.

[ClassicRockStays116]

duh its his voice. i love nirvana but for those who dont know music, it's not written by them.

[10ccalanarkush]

@ClassicRockStays116 this was in the fucking box set, nimrod

[joemc741]

Kurt lived with a preacher when he was a kid. He went to his church and was baptised. Go watch The Last 48 Hours of Kurt Cobain - part 2 of 9 here on youtube.

[phantomninjaman]

[Hero774]

Go to hell you fucking Pretender

[phantomninjaman]

ahhh fuck you I love jesus. learn how to use a sense of humor or you'll end up in hell.

[Hero774]

So Im going to end up in hell if I don't say any jokes about Jesus or God or Heaven ????

[Hero774]

Oh sorry I thought your last comment was implyng somethine like "Wow all those songs for me ? Dang Im a good guy" Sorry for the berserk there lol Wow how embarrassing

[andros1984]

This is a Leadbelly tune

[Hero774]

Hey is this song supposed to be good or bad? Cause I dont want to be called a "Satanist" or something because of me singing this. :s

[NeilEdger]

I'm sure that this song poses no threat to your salvation. I don't hear anything that doesn't glorify the almighty.

Pretty interesting song for Kurt to cover.

[mrdanman92]

does anyone know where i can get a decent tab for this song

[saintgerty]

hold an e chord, strum half then the other half, chugga chugga, then A for mid verse changes, then at end of verse the high change is 224422, whatever chord that is, 3 chords...thats it

[mrdanman92]

[sylha]

dejuen de afanar a Kurt le chupaba media pija jesus

[em162]

I had such a hard time finding the whole version of the song. THX :)

[BleachedInUtero]

this song was originally by leadbelly and was covered by kurt

[TomBandfield]

Yeah HippoJones, when Leadbelly did this song it was called 'He Never Said A Mumbling Word', then Nirvana covered it and renamed it. :-)

[almanacofsleep]

Old blues/ folk artists often recorded/performed the same song with different names. "where did you sleep last night" is also called "in the pines" "black girl"and "my girl".

[muddyanddusty]

why are you so shure that he , or the man who wrote that song(because this is not a nirvana song its a cover of kurt), ment jesus?maybe they ment some other guy ...how ever, please explore your self a bit more before you write something wrong in the internet.

[mhrodrig]

yeah, maybe it is about that other guy that died for man's sins. jordache was his name i think

[almanacofsleep]

He didn't die for mine!

[mhrodrig]

sorry, i should have used air quotes, because i don't believe what i wrote. just talking about the fable.
