cnd, Thanks for the Reneau version, the slang definition, and transcriptions. I was the original poster in 2013 and when listening to this song tonight I thought to look up this thread again. I was glad to see it had been revived only a month ago. With regards to your transcription, I am hearing the opening to say: I have traveled east and west New York, stopped to rest and the closing to say: I have traveled east and west In Washington stopped to rest And then slowing down Uncle Sam's line, I still hear my original transcription: These words he had to say "Don't you give this life away" Says, "next Fall we’ll be with Birmingham"
