about

Recorded by Charlie Poole and the North Carolina Ramblers in 1927. The distinctive string band sound found its foremost revival in the astounding and hugely influential New Lost City Ramblers of the 1960s.

lyrics

Look-a-here, Liza, listen to me
You're not the gal that you promised to be
Didn't you say you would always be true
You went out driving with Mr Brown
I am the laughing stock of the town
People said to never trust you

Chorus
Throw up your hands, babe, I'm a-gonna go
I was a good man while I had the dough
So it's goodbye Miss Liza
I'm a-gonna leave you
You know when I go, I'm the fellow with the dough-dough-dough
So sing a little song, travel along, yes travel along
Bid you good-day, babe, I'm on my way
Goodbye Miss Lisa Jane

Give me here my gold watch and chain
Give me that umbrella they said it might rain
Give me the clothes that I paid for, too
Down in the trunk and hand me them things
Give me here my diamond ring
Get Mr. Brown to dress you all up new

Chorus
