Ballad Of Curtis Loew
In the style of
Lyrics
well i used to
wake the morning
before the
rooster crowed
searchin' for
soda bottles
to get myself
some dough
brought 'em down
to the corner
down to
the country store
cash 'em in and
give my money
to a man named
curtis loew
ol' curt was
a black man with
white curly hair
when he had a
fifth of wine
he did not have a care
he used to own
an old dobro
used to play it
'cross his knee
i give ol' curt my money
he'd play
all day for me
play me a song
curtis loew
curtis loew
well i got your
drinkin' money
tune up your dobro
people said
it was useless
them people
all were fools
'cause curtis loew
was the finest picker
to ever play the blues
he looked to be sixty
and maybe i was ten
mama used to
whup me but
i'd go see him again
i'd clap my hands
stomp my feets
try to stay in time
he'd play me
a song or two
then take another
drink of wine
play me a song
curtis loew
curtis loew
well i got your
drinkin' money
tune up your dobro
people said
it was useless
them people
all were fools
'cause curtis loew
was the finest picker
to ever play the blues
yes sir
on the day
old curtis died
nobody came to pray
old preacher
said some words
and they chunked him
in the clay
well he lived
a lifetime
playin' the
black man's blues
and on the day
he lost his life
that's all
he had to lose
play me a song
curtis loew
hey curtis loew
i wish that
you was here so
everyone would know
people said
you were useless
them people
all were fools
'cause curtis you're
the finest picker
to ever play the blues
