Subject: RE: Tune Req: Need name of old blues tune and singer From: Jim Dixon Date: 15 Jan 08 - 11:57 PM Top40db.net says it's LUMBERJACK recorded by Brook Benton in 1964. I'm a little suspicious of the lyrics they have there. "She stole my pick"? "This was a fine"? |

Subject: Lyr Add: LUMBERJACK (Brook Benton) From: GUEST,r.greer@sympatico.ca Date: 19 Jul 01 - 10:03 AM For my woman I was a lumberjack For my woman I broke my back Working all day long in the hot blistering sun Making big old trees into little bitty ones. While I worked she stole my pay and ran away With her man. That was their plan. Ain't it funny what a smile and a kiss can do When the woman ain’t worth the heel off a good mans shoe She left me here to hold An achin' back and a broken heart Just a broken hearted man Swillin' from my jug. Close as I can get as it has been at least forty years Any help with song name an author would be great On the flip side was a song about never going to bed on an unsolved argument. All I can remember is the line "Don’t do what I did, Do what I say." Another good blues song though and I would love to get it back as well. My best recall of the song on a record I had about forty years ago. |
