GUEST,David Harley	Origins: Long Summer Day (9)	RE: Origins: Long Summer Day	12 Mar 23
I used to have a recording of this by Guy Carawan, on an album called 'A Guy Called Carawan'. To the best of my recollection, it was credited to one of the Lomaxes and the words were along the lines of: Long summer days make a white man lazy Long summer days Those long summer days make a slave run away sir Long summer days He ran away to see Miss Mary He ran away to see his little baby I'm down in the bottom picking that cotton The master killed a Jersey Bull, got himself a bellyful Oh the long summer, long summer, long summer days
