Lyrics: You go to Banglin', tell my boys You go to Banglin', tell my boys What times I'm bavin'up in Illinois In Illinois, up in Illinois When I gin my little cotton I'm going to sell my seed When I gin my little cotton and sell my seed I'm gonna give my baby everything she need Everything she need, everything she need I'm gonna give my baby everything she need You know, I been in Texas and I been in Arkansas I been in Texas and I been in Arkansas But I never had a good time till I got to Illinois Up in Illinois, up in Illinois The people will treat you just so-so so' You'll never go back to old Banglin' no more Never no more, never no more I been to Chicago and I been to Detroit I been to Chicago and I been to Detroit But I never had a good time till I got to Illinois In Illinois, up in Illinois When you go down in Banglin', will you tell my boys When you go down in Banglin', tell my boys What a good time's a-waitin'up in Illinois Up in Illinois, up in Illinois

Little Cow And Calf Is Gonna D - Skip James
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey...
And every cow and calf, I believe was born to die
I'm a-milk my heifer2, milk her in a churn
I'll milk my heifer, I'll milk her in a churn
If you see my rider, tell her it ain't a darn thing doin'3
I wringed my hands, baby, and I wanted to scream
I wringed my hands, honey, and I wanted to scream
And when I woke up I thought it was all a dream
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey...
And every cow and calf, I believe was born to die
Hey hey-hey, I ain't gonna be here long
Hey hey-hey, pretty mama, I ain't gonna be here long
That's the reason why you hear me singin' my old lonesome song
Hey, hey-hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey hey
And every cow's calf, honey, got to be dyin'
I walked the levee from end to end
I walked the levee, honey, from end to end
I was just tryin' to find, my calf, again
I'm feelin' back to my used-to...
I feel a notion, back to my used-to-be
I have a pretty mama, she don't care for me
