  • Great! Love that Harmony guitar...and I "dig the slowness" of the song ;)

  • this is a lot like blind boy fuller's mama let me lay it on you

    take a listen and compare the styles!

  • @CanadianFolkBlue it's not the same arrangement but I know what you mean, it's based on that _ or the other way around... 'never know with old blues songs like this

  • The great Mance lipscomb. An AMERICAN MASTER of the DELTA BLUES! I have his recording of Alabama Jubilee! RIP

  • Comment removed

  • you can watch it , now try to do it .....these old masters had something special that's impossible to duplicate .

  • Whoa. Never saw this before today. Always loved Mance's music. It was the first fingerpicking style I tried to cop. Thanks for posting this. 

  • Can I Do Something for you???

  • she'll take a sedan ford ...

  • This is the best song I have ever heard. Everything about it is perfect, the picking and Mance's wonderful, almost nonchalant singing.

  • effortless, phenomenal!!!!!!!!

  • sounds like "strip of land" in the the second verse

  • WOW! You tube never ceases to amaze! Long time favorite form Mance Lipscomb! Thanks for posting this masterpiece!

  • What does he say at the end? The last verse? What was the one thing she wanted? Anybody know? I can't understand him.

  • she wants a sedan Ford...or a Ford sedan...but sedan Ford fit better in the song...guess she dont like the bowtie...HA!

  • Cool, thanks! Yeah, "sedan Ford" is probably the way they talked back then. If it's not too much trouble, do you know what the second verse says? There are no lyrics anywhere on the Internet for this.

  • You mean when he says ill buy you a house and home?

  • i love this tune

  • thank You tubesville for posting, and thank you Mance for the music !!!

  • Just great!
