Self-accompanied in G position, with Hammie Nixon, harmonica, unknown washtub bass
Now, I been well-warned and I didn't take heed in time
Now, I been well-warned, didn't take heed in time
Now, I been well-warneded [sic], I didn't take heed in time
I done lost my health and gone stone blind
Now I'm 'ant to know your friends when you get down
Now I want to know your friends, you get down
Now I want to know your friends, you get down
They be always askin' 'bout you, don't never come around
Now, when you lose your eyesight, your best friend gone
Now, when you lose your eyesight, your best friend gone
Now, when you lose your eyesight, your best friend gone
Your [?], just people want to fool with you wrong
Now, my mother and my father are both dead and gone
Now, my mother and my father are both dead and gone
Now, my mother and my father, they both dead and gone
You know they left me 'round here, still stumblin' along
Now, I was standin' on the corner, close 'side the wall
Now, I was standin' on the corner, close 'side the wall
Now, I was standin' on the corner, I was close 'side the wall
Only way I c'd tell my friend I had to catch [these? ]
