Verse 1
Louisiana, on a farm they call
Goldmine
My daddy left when I was three hard times for my mother,
F
D
my brother and me
Mother left to find a job to
lay the food on the table
So we packed up everything we had
and went to live with my
Grandpa
Caleb
Now, my grandpa was a marshal
In that part of the parish
And never I've been here
to take it with him
And I never will forget it
D
G
And I'm still goin' on strong
D
There was two nightclubs in
Mangum, on opposite sides of the track
One side was full of white and
the other full of black
F
D
On one side I remember
Hank
Williams singin' the
Mercy
Blues
On the other side,
Elmore
James was singin'
Dust
Mountain
That's just the boyhood days
I've been through
Can't produce a minute of song
But I owe it all to my grandpa
Taylor
And him I give it all
And I'm still going on
