Subject: Lyr Req: Leadbelly - I'm on my last go round From: GUEST,Vern Hart Date: 26 Oct 09 - 05:58 PM I've been looking all over for the lyrics to Leadbelly's song I'm On My Last Go Round, can't find anything though. I think I can hear most of the lyrics on the recording I have but the first part of the third verse totally escapes me and I'm unsure about some other bits too. I would appreciate any input. Here's what I've got so far: Follow me down Follow me down Follow me down I'm on my last go round I am broke and homeless Ragged and dirty too I jes' wanna know gel can I go home with you? That big bell is ringin' That bell is really tall (unsure about this line, sounds like it might be about the bell's "tone" possibly) I'm a poor boy and I'm a long long way from home ................. ................. all my clothes I don't wanna be bothered with no suitcase on my road Follow me down Follow me down Follow me down 'Cos I'm on my last go round Anybody should ask you Who composed this song Tell'em it's Huddie Ledbetter, he done been carryin' on |
