I have the words to this as posted by Stewie.What I need are the chords. (Yep, dumb as a box of rocks). Great old song. Jim

Lyris posted by Stewie are HERE. Printed music (with no chords) is in W.K. McNeil, Southern Folk Ballads, vol. II (August House, 1988, p. 172) and in Roger D. Abrahams & Geroge Foss, Anglo-American Folksong Style (Prentice-Hall, 1968, p. 122).

The remark in my last post was for the ill-mannered lout who makes requests by leaving blank posts. Piss on you.

The request was made in 2002. Somehow, I don't think the OP is coming back.

I agree, but one lives in hope.

This was my great 4x grandfather who wrote this song Little Bessie and wrote The Orphan Girl. I have genealogy papers that tell how I'm related to him.
