GUEST,Michael Cooney | Lyr Req: Time Table Blues (Captain Appleblossom) (10) | RE: Lyr Req: train song'want to hear what the eng | 22 Dec 00 |
I think it's called "Timetable Blues"; I learned it off a New Lost City Ramblers record. While the song is less than three minutes long, I couldn't remember it unless I sang it at least once a week because there's nothing to tell you what the next line is. (Unlike a ballad, which has a story to follow.) John Cohen (who sang it on the NLCR record) admitted that he did it by reading the words. |
