A slow version of the above" Yeah you know I was born in the bottomsDown by the Devil's DenYeah I was born in the bottomsDown by the Devil's DenYes you know I ain't seen my homeWhoah yes since the Good Lord knows when.You know my Papa was a preacherPoor Mama she was sanctifiedMy Daddy was a preacherPoor Mama she was sanctifiedBut some time I wish I'd a been born deadDaddy said son it's a shame you were born alive.I used to run the world overI'd run the world so that my Daddy was madAnd Mama she was tooBut I stopped running when I settled down for aGreedy little girl I'd come to church with too.My Daddy wanted to kill me one day and Mama told me:Son you better run, you better runYou better run if you ain't got your gunYou better run, you better run, sonYou better run, if you ain't got your gunI said Mama don't you worry I take care of myself'Cause I wasn't born to runAll right . . .One more word Mama told me:You better try to make it before the sun rises in the morningI said Mama I'll make it if I canYou better try to make it before the sun rise in the morningMama I'll try to make it now if I canBut if my Daddy should catch me with thatold shotgun I'm gonna let him knowI done forgot about how he had been my friend."Bug's one man band

  • Thanks Uncle John... I'm thinking about buying a new harps to try too... I met a homless person tonight and tried to give him some inspiration, which we all need..  he was a lyricist and I know i'm not

    let's hope I helped him with a little with his sales story..  to hold his own in this harsh world... as I sure did'nt have any money to give him.... thanks for your comments, it all helps me get more inspired.

  • I'm late to get on board, but I like this one as much as the other folks.  You seem to be reaching new and good levels.  This one is purer blues and less skiffle.  Darn good harp and maybe your best vocals yet.  Growly and expressive.
