Maybe this doesn't have anything in common with the other songs but the name, but it's worth having.


ALBERTA
As sung by Big Bill Broonzy on "Big Bill Broonzy Sings Folk Songs" (Smithsonian Folkways, 1956)

Alberta, Alberta, oh, Alberta,
Alberta, Alberta, oh, Alberta,
I been gamblin' all night an' I lost all of my money,
So, ride, Alberta, ride.
Ride, ride to me.
I don't care what time o' night,
Long as you just treat me right.
Baby, ride, ride to me.

Oh, ride, Alberta, ride.
Ride, ride to me.
You don't need no saddle, baby.
You don't need no gun.
Baby, just ride, ride to me.

Oh, ride, Alberta, ride.
Ride, ride to me.
Tighten down your hat.
I don't care where you at.
Baby, just ride, ride to me.

Oh, ride, Alberta, ride.
Ride, ride to me.
Oh, saddle up your pony.
Put ev'rything you got on it.
Baby, just ride, ride to me.
