ANY OLD TIME
Oh, ley-he-ee, ah-le-oh-lay-he-he
I just received your letter. You're down-and-out, you say.
Any old time you want to come back home,
Now that you're down, I'm going to stick by you. [Instrumental bridge -- mostly cornet, violin, clarinet]
You'll find me right here, like the day you left me alone Artist: Jimmie Rodgers; Transcribed from Rounder CD 1057 "Jimmie Rodgers: "The Early Years, 1928-1929". Lyrics in this version, recorded in New York City, Feb. 21, 1929. Jimmy on solo vocal with a house orchestra of unknown violin, cornet, clarinet, tuba, piano, and trapman, and conducted by Leonard Joy. Note, when Hank Snow recorded this song, he omitted verse 1 shown above. |

26 Mar 02 - 04:12 AM (#676414) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Jimmy Rogers;Any Old Time From: Scabby Douglas I have commented very recently on the weird synchronicity of Mudcat. I was searching for these lyrics only yesterday, and found them. And now, the very next day... someone else is looking for them. The first person I heard singing this was Maria Muldaur on her MIdnight At The Oasis album.. Cheers

13 Jun 08 - 03:58 AM (#2364818) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Any Old Time (Jimmie Rodgers) From: Genie Funny, but I just came across this song (for the first time in years) while browsing YouTube and looking for "Jimmy MacGregor." I noticed this title, as sung by Hank MacGregor, and wondered if it was the same song I have on my Maria Muldaur album. Yup. The thing is, I had no idea Jimmie Rodgers wrote and first sang it! Also, this is a song I really need to add to my repertoire for retirement home gigs and for song circles and jams. Glad I stumbled across it again. G |

31 Aug 09 - 04:36 PM (#2713196) Subject: Video: Any Old Time (Jimmie Rodgers) From: Genie Here's Jimmie Rodgers singing his song, with a slide show of pics of that "Singing Brakeman" YouTube - Any Old Time It's interesting how precisely and properly Jimmie pronounces the words; "going to," not "gonna"; "roaming," not "roamin'. (He does sing "wanta," not "want to," though.) Nowadays people singing "country" or "blues" or a lot of "folk" (even pop and rock) seem to make a point of dropping a final "g" and so forth, and even lyric transcriptions and often song titles are written that way (e.g., "Do You Wanna Dance?"). Jimmie Rodgers didn't have to be deliberately sloppy to sound authentically country or folky. |

31 Aug 09 - 07:02 PM (#2713311) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Any Old Time (Jimmie Rodgers) From: Genie Now that you mention it, Seamus, yes. BTW, in my posting of the lyric with chords, I was basing transcribing the lyrics from Maria Muldaur's version of the song, and she's not nearly as precise and proper in pronouncing things like "going to" as Jimmie Rodgers was. I actually prefer using the 'slangier' pronunciation, and Maria's version is bluesier, but I also appreciate Jimmie Rodgers's original. |
