Both "Life Gits Teejus Don't It" and "The Clouds Are Gwine to Roll Away" are on Doc Watson's "On Stage" recording which came out in 1971. I doubt that there is a better example of Doc Watson's combination of charm, skill and humility than is found here. Carson Robison also wrote "Dem Golden Slippers", a song often assumed to be "traditional".        

The current CD version of Doc's "On Stage" leaves off the Homer and Jethro sendup of "Moving On", unfortunatey.
