Blues is a natural fact, is something that a fellow lives. If you don't live it you don't have it. Young people have forgotten to cry the blues. Now they talk and get lawyers and things - Big Bill Broonzy
"What is I'm goin'" sounds right to me, Harry. I would suggest "fought" rather than "found" in the second verse despite his odd pronunciation, though. Chris
Hi Harry and Chris, I think in that tagline to to the first verse, Walter Roland sings: (what is IT I'm goin' to do) He squeezes in the "it" really quickly, but you can hear him come to a full stop on the "t" sound at the end of it an instant before he sings "I'm". All best, Johnm

I agree, Johnm, and wouldst point out, it is a common Shakespearean contraction.
