John Jacob Niles singing Go 'Way From My Window
Go away from my window
Go away from my door
Go away way from my bedside
And bother me no more
And bother me no more
I'll go tell all of my brothers
I'll go tell my shipmates too
The reason that my heart is broke
Is on account of you
Is on account of you
I'll give you back your letter
I'll give you back you ring
And I won't forget my own true love
As long as song birds sing
As long as song birds sing
Go away from my window
Go away from my door
Go away way from my bedside
And bother me no more
And bother me no more
I'll tell all of my brothers
I'll tell my shipmates too
The reason that my heart is broke
Is on account of you
Is on account of you

He lived down the road from my High School! I never got to see him live, but we did perform some of his songs from his "Songcatcher" days. He passed away either when I was in college or soon after.

He wrote this song for a girl when he was sixteen. His old age gives new depth to the song. You can tell he still means every word.

to all of you who have or who will watch the clips of my father John Jacob Niles please be assured that he was my BIOLOGICAL father. His high voice does not in any way indicate that he was "missing anything." Trust me, everthing was there.
