Has anyone got the full set of words to the following song? - I'm sure there must be more but can't find any reference on Mudcat - Sounds like an American song so I'm hoping our American friends will know if more words exist.
What I have is:

Won't you look up and down that long lonesome road?
Hang down your head and cry, my Lord,
Hang down your head and cry.

Well, I wish to the Lord I'd never seen your face
Or heard your lyin' tongue, my Lord,
Or heard your lyin' tongue.

Well, I wish to the Lord I'd never been born
Or died when I was a baby, Lord,
Or died when I was a babe.

And that's all I've got!! Grateful for any more..

Adrian

Ade, put [Lonesome road] in the blue search box on the top right. You'll get two, Ian and Sylvia's and Doc Watsons.

Ade, I had no trouble finding the song in the digital lyric search, entering "long lonesome road;" there are also probably some commentary if you enter the same thing into the Mudcat thread search, or whatever it is called. I'm new around here too but it's still a lot of fun bouncing off the walls.

Sometimes it's the square brackets, other times, not......tricks, my friend, tricks.
