| | | Artist: | Unknown |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Tell Poor Lou Im Gone Nigger Lou | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 162 | | | | Lyrics: | Tell Poor Lou I'm Gone (Nigger Lou)
cho: Tell poor Lou I'm gone, (You'll get no supper
here,)
Tell poor Lou I'm gone, (You'll get no supper here,)
Law! Law, my pretty
gal
You'll get no supper here.
Beefsteak and mutton ham
Little bit of
sorghum too;
Any one man that can stomach all that
Does a little more than I can
do.
chorus:
Eighteen horses in my team,
Leader he is
blind;
Everywhere I drive that team
Got a pretty girl on my
mind.
chorus:
Eighteen miles of mountain road
Sixteen miles of
sand;
Ever I travel this road again,
Gonna be a married
man.
chorus:
Awfullest sight, ever I seen
Two old cats
a-fightin';
One hollered out: "That's no fair fight
'Cause t'other old thing's
a-bitin'.
chorus:
Coffee grows on white-oak trees
Rivers flow with
brandy;
Old folks live on bread and cheese
And the gals are sweet as
candy.
chorus:
Collected from Rufus Crisp, Palmer Crisp in Allen, KY
1953.
Note: Rufus thought it was a minstrel show tune.
