Baby, please don't go
A'baby, please don't go down to New Orleans
I love you so
Baby, please don't go
Well your man done gone
Well your man done gone
Well your man done gone down the county farm
He had shackles on
Baby, please don't go
Before I'll be your dog
Before I'll be your dog
Before I'll be your dog, getcha way down here
'N make you walk the log
Baby, please don't go
A'baby, please don't go
A'baby, please don't go
A'baby, please don't go down to New Orleans
I love you so
Baby, please don't go, yeah
Hit me
This song is by Big Joe Williams
From down in Crawford, Mississippi
Lord Got he must've sold a million
Now got to meet him one time
About a year before he died, yeah
I was standing in the Mississippi
Sun was shinin' down on me
Waitin' for him to arrive
Directly after a while, my eyes could clearly see
Big Joe behind the wheel of a Plymouth Fury 3
I was makin' up the driveway looking at me
I knew pretty soon we'd be keeping company
I wanted to talk to him, yeah
I got the chance and I said
I said well, get ready
"Hey, Big Joe, hey, Big Joe, hey, Big Joe, hey, Big Joe
What are your favorite songs you ever recorded?
Your favorite songs you ever recorded?
Your favorite songs you ever recorded?
Your favorite songs you ever recorded?"
And he said, "Baby, Please don't go"
Highway 49, people still love that"
I said, "Didn't Howling Wolf, do Highway 49?"
Big Joe said, "Huh! He tried"
Before I'll be your dog
Before I'll be your dog, woof
Before I'll be your dog, I'll get you way down here
I'll make you walk the log
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go down to New Orleans
I love you so
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go Baby, please don't go A'baby, please don't go down to New Orleans I love you so Baby, please don't go Well your man done gone Well your man done gone Well your man done gone down the county farm He had shackles on Baby, please don't go Before I'll be your dog Before I'll be your dog Before I'll be your dog, getcha way down here 'N make you walk the log Baby, please don't go A'baby, please don't go A'baby, please don't go A'baby, please don't go down to New Orleans I love you so Baby, please don't go, yeah Hit me This song is by Big Joe Williams From down in Crawford, Mississippi Lord Got he must've sold a million Now got to meet him one time About a year before he died, yeah I was standing in the Mississippi Sun was shinin' down on me Waitin' for him to arrive Directly after a while, my eyes could clearly see Big Joe behind the wheel of a Plymouth Fury 3 I was makin' up the driveway looking at me I knew pretty soon we'd be keeping company I wanted to talk to him, yeah I got the chance and I said I said well, get ready "Hey, Big Joe, hey, Big Joe, hey, Big Joe, hey, Big Joe What are your favorite songs you ever recorded?
