Hello From the LEADBELLY'S last session(Smithsonian Folkways)I found in disc #1 track #29 "Winnsborow Cotton Mill Blues" It starts with I love my country, indeed I do But that war has made me feel blue. Continued with When Mister Hoover said to cut my dinner down I never even hesitate, I never frown I cut my sugar, I cut my coal But now they dug down deep in my soul I've got the blues, I've got the blues But this recording ends after 48 seconds It seems that "Winnsboro Cotton Mill Blues" is in fact "The Alcoholic Blues" written and composed by Albert Von Tilzer / Edward Laska. Billy Murray did it in 1919 and DeFord Bailey in 1927 Am I right or wrong? Who can help me either by the lyrics or by the tune (MP3) Thank you
