Jimmy Rodgers Visits the Carter Family: My Clinch Mountain Home / Little Darling Pal of Mine / A Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight

Far away on a hill, thru a sunny mountain side
Many years ago we parted, my little Ruth and I From the sunny mountain side
Hey girls, stop that noise!
Yonder comes a strange car up our road.
Lord, it may be the revenue-officer.
It has a Texas license.
Oh, that’s Jimmie Rodgers!
Hey — hey, howdy Folks, dee — yodel — ay — hee — hee
Ha — ha, so this is Virginia?
Yes Sir, mighty glad to see you, Jimmie!
Get out and come right in!
You are the first cowboy we’ve seen in a long time.
He — he, is that so?
Boy it’s a long way from here to Texas.
Man — Man, I didn’t know it’s such a drive from Texas to Virginia.
Well, I’m here anyhow.
Gee!
I’ve been wanting to see you, Folks, for a long time.
How about a little drink, Jimmie?
Ha — ha, Boy that sounds good to me, dee — yodel — ay — hee — hee.
Man — Man, come and go get the old boy a little squirt, will you?
Girls, you all play him a little tune.
Make him feel like he’s at home while he’s at Maces Springs
My little Darling, oh how I love you
How I love you, none can tell
In your heart you love another
Little Darling, pal of mine
