Leadbelly and Little Booker

both had the pleasure of partying on the ponderosa.

You know what I mean?

You dig

Yea, on the ponderosa, you know,

down there in Angola where the got

boys doing from one year to ninety nine.

Late last Saturday night I got married right now,

me and my wife, we settled down.

Yeah

Now me and my wife have parted.

I’m gonna take gonna take a little stroll downtown.

You know I’m gonna say Irine good nignt now

Irine good night

Well Irine Irine, well good night good night good night

Irine, Irine, I’m gonna see you, gonna see you well well

in my dreams.

Stopped my gambelin' and stopped all my rambelin' now.

Stopped stayin out so, so late at night now now.

Going home to my wife and my family

You know I’m gonna sit, gonna sit, by the fire side right.

You know I’m gonna say

Irine good night now, Irine good night.

Well Irine, Irine, well, good night.

Good night, good night.

Well I’m gonna see you

I’m gonna see you in my dream now.

Sometimes I live way out in the country right now.

Sometimes sometimes I live in town.

Sometimes I get a great notion

To jump into the river, the river

and just drown, drown.

No, jump into the river,

and now you know I’m gonna drown.

Well, drown.

Well, drown.

Oh, to the river, and drown

Drown.

Don’t you let me drown

well well well well well well now now

No no, I don’t wanna wanna drown
