Sammie, Where Have You Been So Long? Lyrics by Dock Boggs

Country Blues: Complete Early Recordings (1927-29)

0

Oh Sammie, where've you been so long?
Oh Sammie, where've you been so long?
I've been to the West and I'm going back, I guess
Oh honey, let me beg you — please don't go
Oh honey, let me beg you — please don't go
I've been to the West and I'm going back, I guess
Oh honey, let me beg you — please don't go
See me comin' in with my twenty dollar bill
Yeah, Sammie, where've you been so long?
Oh Sammie, where've you been so long?
I've been to the West and I'm going back, I guess
Oh honey, let me beg you — please don't go
Oh honey, let me beg you — please don't go
Oh, my whiskey bill is due
And my board bill is, too
And my last gold dollar done and gone
And my last gold dollar done and gone
Oh, my whiskey bill is due
And my board bill is, too
And my last gold dollar done and gone
