From: GUEST,Thomas Fiddler There is a song I heard a snippet of in the 1983 Appalshop documentary, "Strangers & Kin" that goes like this: Don't leave me daddy Oh, daddy don't you go Something better will come along Does anyone know this song? I could really use to lyrics and the basic chord progression, if possible. Thanks! |
