Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: stealing From: Mark Cohen Date: 20 Jun 01 - 10:12 PM And Arlo Guthrie did it on "Runnin' Down the Road" in 1970. I can't drag the whole thing out of my fading memory, but his version of Amos's verse is: Well I got me a woman 'Bout my size and height She's a married woman So you know she treats me right The folk music program on WKSU from Kent, Ohio (which I hear online at wksu.org) recently played "Oh, In the Morning" from that album...I'd forgotten just how beautiful that song was. Anybody know anything more about it? (I know it's thread creep, but I'm too lazy to start another thread right now.) Aloha, Mark |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: stealing From: GUEST,Amos Date: 20 Jun 01 - 03:49 PM Well the woman I'm a-lovin She;s just my type an' kind She's a pretty married woman Comes to see me sometimes You don't believe... (etc) |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: stealing From: GUEST,DJH Date: 20 Jun 01 - 03:01 PM I believe if you can credit the song to any one it would be Wil Shades and the Memphis Jug Band, Not Gus Cannon, although If I am wrong I would love to hear a version done by Cannon's Jug Stompers. Garcia and Grisman do a great version of it on the fantastic SHADY GROVE collection. |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: stealing From: Mudlark Date: 20 Jun 01 - 01:29 PM Thanks Trapper...I've always liked Stealin...such a slidy, formless, laidback song I've never had the nerve to try to play it...unitl now.

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: stealing From: Sarah2 Date: 20 Jun 01 - 12:16 PM Additional verses I used to hear from a hot little jug band back in Houston in the '60s:
I know a pretty gal, and
My life's a vicious circle, Don't know where that last one came from...a toss-in of oblique sophomoric philosophy or sumpin'... But, thanks, Trapper, for the smile -- haven't thought of that in ages. That group used to make Sand Mountain rock! Sarah |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: STEALIN From: Stewie Date: 16 Nov 99 - 07:28 PM For those interested in the Memphis Jug Band, I mention that the missing volume 2 of their complete recorded works is available on the Frog label as FROG DGF16 [David French 167 Shernhall Street Walthamstow London E17 9HX]. Volumes 1 and 3 appeared on the JSP, but that label abandoned its reissue project. 'Stealin' stealin'' is on volume 2. Frog intends to reissue Vols 1 and 2 in due course, but they should still be available through JSP outlets at the moment. A magnificent series with wonderful sound. The restoration is done by the best sound restoration engineer of all - John R.T. Davies. No one does it better. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: STEALIN From: BanjoRay Date: 15 Nov 99 - 06:50 PM I don't think STEALIN', STEALIN' was by Gus Cannon - it was the Memphis Jug Band. The only two verses they used were: Put your arms around me like a circle round the sun I want you to love me honey like my easy rider done The woman I'm in love with just my height and size She's a married woman come to see me some time Cheers Ray |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: STEALIN From: Roger the skiffler Date: 11 Nov 99 - 06:19 AM Nice version from Paul Jones and the Blues Band on their acoustic "Wireless" album. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: STEALIN From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 10 Nov 99 - 03:50 PM Steve, We had a discussion on this once before. I think the first two verses are from Gus Cannon and the others were added later. Roger in Baltimore |
Subject: STEALIN From: Steve Goodbar Date: 10 Nov 99 - 01:32 PM DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY INFOMATION ON THE LYRICS FOR "STEALIN, STEALIN" THAT ARE LISTED IN THE DATABASE? ARE THESE THE ORIGINAL GUS CANNON LYRICS? THANKS, STEVE |
