Thread Name: Origins: Goodbye Liza Jane
Subject: Lyr Add: GOODBYE LIZA JANE
So far, none of the verses seem to match up to the tune I know as GLJ. Here are mine:

Eight more miles to Louisville, Good bye, Goodbye,
Eight more miles to Louisville, Goodbye Liza Jane

Chorus: Oh,Oh, Miss Liza
Goodbye Liza Jane
Oh,Oh Miss Liza
You're driving me insane
2x

Can't stay here if you can't shuck corn, Goodbye, Goodbye,
Can't stay here if you can't shuck corn, Goodbye Liza Jane

Some folks say a preacher won't steal, Goodbye, Goodbye
But I found three in my cornfield, Goodbye Liza Jane
One had a bushel, one had a peck, Goodbye, Goodbye
One had a rosary around his neck, Goodbye Liza Jane
