Lynchburg Town / Briggs' Jig |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to lynchburg town to take my tobacca down |
Tobacca sell’n high, |
Tobacca sell’n high, |
50 cencs when it wet and 60 when its dry, |
Tobacca sell’n low, |
Tobacca sell’n low, |
Tobacco won’t bring seven cencs and it ain’t no use to go |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to lynchburg town to take my tobacca down |
Little piece of ash cake, little piece of fat, |
Some folks wanna grumble if you get so much as dat, |
I love them mash potatas, i bake’em into sand, |
I love them bacon and corn bread i fry them in the pan, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to lynchburg town to take my tobacca down |
Easiest ting i ever did was flotin' down on jin, |
The hardest thing i ever did do was holdin' back again, |
The wost ting that i ever did, got the boat hold in a vine, |
The best thing i ever did do was lovin' dem ladys fine, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to lynchburg town to take my tobacca down — HEY BOYS |
Well i don’t mind to work so hard, hey its mighty lean, |
I don’t see the resone why some folks treat me so mean, |
Times is gettin' hard, money gettn' scarse, |
It don’t get no better here, well im ganna leave this place, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to lynchburg town and take my tobacca down |
Gwine on down to town, |
Gwine on down to town, |
I’M gwine on down to lynchburg town to take my tobacca down |
