Johnm:
Thanks Chris, I'll get them both in Weeniepedia, labeled appropriately.

Blues Vintage:
Suggestions for take 2, the first post of this thread

4.3 Work like the blues will reduce you tuberculosis, kill you by degrees

5.1 Worried now, sugar, and I shan't be worried long

I'm not convinced of the beginning of 3.3
It could be Arm would reach for your daddy

banjochris:
Is there any other blues singer who used "shan't" in this line? Love it!

I think it could be "Arm would" also, and tuberculosis for sure.

Johnm:
Thanks very much for the help with the lyrics of "Four Day Blues", Blues Vintage and Chris. I think that one line is "arm done reached for your daddy, . . . .. "Tuberculosis" is a great catch, it's certainly what he sang, but I didn't catch his pronunciation at all. I have made the fixes. Thanks!
