I went ahead and corrected the lyrics from the MP3:

ELDER GREEN'S IN TOWN
Lomax's 1939 Southern Recording Trip Fieldnotes; Section 15: State Farm, Camp #9, near Arkansas City, Arkansas; May 22; sung by Alf "Dad" Valentine

Elder Green's in town, Elder Green's in town
My sister and them caught her singin'
Alabama Bound.

Don't you leave her here, don't you leave her here
If you miss de train an' de steamboat too
She's got a mule to ride.

Got a mule to ride, Got a mule to ride
If she miss train an' de steamboat too,
She got a mule to ride.

Elder Green's in town, turnin' round an' round.
My sister and them caught her singin'
Alabama Bound.
