Roger in Baltimore Origins: Sugar Babe (Mance Lipscomb, Tom Rush, etc (39) RE: sugar babe 23 Oct 99


Here with go with those old blues lyrics again. I thought I heard "Whipped that woman 'til she busted ope'". Any blues historians here? I would rather hear from someone who talked to Mance about the song. Having read some of Alan Lomax's transcriptions, I am very wary of anyone's transcriptions (even mine).
