Back before the blues were blue |
| [00:22.92] |
|
| [00:23.67] |
When the good ol' songs were new |
| [00:26.80] |
|
| [00:28.05] |
Songs that may no longer please us |
| [00:30.92] |
|
| [00:31.92] |
'Bout the darkies, about Jesus |
| [00:35.16] |
|
| [00:35.91] |
Mississippi minstrels color of molasses |
| [00:39.79] |
|
| [00:40.48] |
Strummed their banjos to entertain their massas |
| [00:43.93] |
Some said garbage, others cried art |
| [00:47.50] |
You couldn't call it soul, you had to call it heart |
| [00:51.20] |
|
| [00:54.26] |
Backs broke bending digging holes to plant the seeds |
| [00:57.82] |
|
| [00:58.38] |
The owners ate the cane and the workers ate the weeds |
| [01:01.63] |
Put the wood in the stove, the water in the cup |
| [01:04.82] |
|
| [01:05.76] |
You worked so hard that you died standing up |
| [01:08.88] |
|
| [01:12.32] |
When I was a little thing |
| [01:14.86] |
|
| [01:15.99] |
Papa tried to make me sing |
| [01:18.93] |
|
| [01:20.11] |
Home Sweet Home and Aura Lee |
| [01:22.60] |
|
| [01:23.35] |
These were songs that my daddy tought me |
| [01:27.10] |
|
| [01:27.66] |
Camptown Races and Susannah Don't You Cry |
| [01:31.17] |
|
| [01:31.73] |
Gentle Annie still brings a tear to my eye |
| [01:35.34] |
Label it garbage, label it art |
| [01:38.03] |
|
| [01:38.78] |
You couldn't call it soul, you had to call it heart |
| [01:42.27] |
|
| [01:45.58] |
Backs broke bending digging holes to plant the seeds |
| [01:49.26] |
The owners ate the cane and the workers ate the weeds |
| [01:53.01] |
Put the wood in the stove, the water in the cup |
| [01:56.06] |
|
| [01:56.75] |
You worked so hard that you died standing up |
| [02:00.45] |
|
| [02:03.57] |
Sing me songs of days gone by |
| [02:06.44] |
|
| [02:07.19] |
Watch me laugh, watch me cry |
| [02:10.06] |
|
| [02:11.37] |
Break my female heart in two |
| [02:13.43] |
|
| [02:14.37] |
Sing me songs that say "I love you" |
| [02:18.11] |
|
| [02:18.73] |
Lower your eyes, raise your hand to your breast |
| [02:21.86] |
|
| [02:22.92] |
Sing me one about the sun setting in the west |
| [02:26.30] |
|
| [02:38.53] |
Backs broke bending digging holes to plant the seeds |
| [02:42.03] |
The owners ate the cane and the workers ate the weeds |
| [02:45.29] |
Put the wood in the stove, the water in the cup |
| [02:48.35] |
|
| [02:48.91] |
You worked so hard that you died standing up |
| [02:52.22] |
|
| [02:59.67] |
Wood's in the stove, water's in the cup |
| [03:02.91] |
|
| [03:03.98] |
You worked so hard that you died standing up |
| [03:06.72] |
