Contents:
I just got wise
Walkin' in my sleep
The one I love is gone
Weary lonesome blues
Long black veil
Cowboy Jim
Memories of mother and dad
Sugar tree stomp
Mommy please stay home with me
Gabriel's call
Coal miner's blues
Difficult run
Who's that knocking?
A tiny broken heart
Can't you hear me calling?
Darling Nellie across the sea
Won't you come and sing for me
Lee highway blues
A distant land to roam
Gonna lay down my old guitar
Take me back to Tulsa
They're at rest together (T.B. blues)
John Henry
Just another broken heart
Train on the island
Lover's return
I hear a sweet voice calling
Childish love.
