Thread Name: Lyr Req: Baby Please Don't Go (Big Joe Williams)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Big Joe Williams song Baby Please Do
Stewie, these lines proved a problem.
I b'live my baby done lie(d) I b'live my baby done lie(d) I b'live my baby she lied that she didn't have a man Now while I had my time (could be 'turn')
'Fore I'd be your dog Now 'fore I'd be your dog 'Fore I'd be your dog, I'd pack my trunk this morning, baby Go back the road I come
"Now while I had my time" should be "Not while I had my turn." It is also not "Go back the road I come" Its supposed to be "Go back to Rolling Fork"
The first line of the last verse should be, "I b'lieve you're tryin to keep me here"
