Subject: Did You Ever Go A-Courtin', Uncle Joe From: GUEST,Vash the Bodhranai Date: 24 Nov 00 - 05:07 PM Hello all, I'm searching for the lyrics to a bluegrass song called "Did You Ever Go A-Courtin', Uncle Joe". I heard parts of it on The Chieftains album Another Country, and I'd like to play around with it a bit. Can anyone help? Thanks, ~Vash |

Subject: RE: Did You Ever Go A-Courtin', Uncle Joe From: greenfields Date: 24 Nov 00 - 10:52 PM There's also a nice version on a Buffy Ste. Marie album called "I'm Going to Be a Country Girl Again." Some of the lyrics are:
"Does your horse carry double, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe (3 times)
"Would you rather ride a pacer, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe (3x)
Up up my ladies, two in a row, up up my ladies, two in a row
Was she once a single footer, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe (3x)
Up up my ladies again... |
