Way down in Columbus, Georgia Lord, I's wishin' I was back in Tennessee Way down in that old Columbus Stockade My friends all turned their backs on me Go and leave me if you wish to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Leave me little darlin', I don't mind [instrumental] Many hours with you I've rambled Honey, countless hours with you I've spent Thought I had your heart forever But I found it's only lent Go and leave me if you wish to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Leave me little darlin', I don't mind [instrumental] Last night as I lay sleeping I dreamt I was holding you in my arms When I woke, I was mistaken I was peeping through the bars You can go and leave me if you wish to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Leave me little darlin', I don't mind Lord, I've got the rambling blues

I'm goin' across the mountain Oh fare thee well Goin' across the mountain You can hear my banjo tell I got my rifle on my back My powder it is dry Goin' across the mountain Chrissie don't you cry Goin' across the mountain Oh fare thee well Goin' across the mountain You can hear my banjo tell [instrumental] Now way before it's good daylight If nothing happens to me I'll be way down yonder In old Tennessee I expect you'll miss me when I'm gone But I'll be going through When this war is over I'll come back to you Goin' across the mountain Oh fare thee well Goin' across the mountain You can hear my banjo tell [instrumental] Goin' across the mountain To join the boys in blue When this war is over I'll come back to you Goin' across the mountain If I have to crawl To give ol' Jeff's men Some of my rifle ball Goin' across the mountain Oh fare thee well Goin' across the mountain You can hear my banjo tell I'm goin' across the mountain Oh fare thee well Goin' across the mountain You can hear my banjo tell

Way down below the Mason Dixon line Down where the honeysuckles are entwined There's where the southern winds are blowing There's where the daisies growing The girls up north in their gay finery Whirlin' around in the society A-singing songs about my dixie darling Where I long to be My dixie darling, listen to the song I sing Beneath the silver moon With the banjo right in tune My heart is ever true I love no one but you My dixie darling, my dixie queen [instrumental] I'm a-goin' down south to have a big time Gonna see my gal in old Caroline I'll drink my booze and do as I please For that gal I long to squeeze And I'll be singing songs about my dixie darling There's where I long to be going Down where the jelly rolls a-rollin' With my dixie queen My dixie darling, listen to the song I sing Beneath the silver moon With the banjo right in tune My heart is ever true I love no one but you My dixie darling, my dixie queen [instrumental] My dixie darling, listen to the song I sing Beneath the silver moon With the banjo right in tune My heart is ever true I love no one but you My dixie darling, my dixie queen My dixie darling, my dixie queen

I got a feelin' called the blues, oh Lord Since my baby said goodbye Lord I don't know what I'll do All I do is sit and sigh, oh Lord That last long day she said goodbye Well Lord, I thought I would cry She'd do me, she'd do you She's got that kind of lovin' Lord, I love to hear her When she calls me sweet daddy Such a beautiful dream I hate to think it all over I lost my heart it seems I've grown so used to you somehow Well I'm nobody's sugar daddy now And I'm lonesome I got the lovesick blues I'm in love, I'm in love With a beautiful gal That's what's the matter with me I'm in love, I'm in love With a beautiful gal But she don't care about me Well I've tried and I've tried To keep her satisfied But she just wouldn't stay So now that she is leavin' This is all I say... I got a feelin' called the blues, oh Lord Since my baby said goodbye Lord I don't know what I'll do All I do is sit and sigh, oh Lord That last long day she said goodbye Well Lord, I thought I would cry She'd do me, she'd do you She's got that kind of lovin' Lord, I love to hear her When she calls me sweet daddy Such a beautiful dream I hate to think it all over I lost my heart it seems I've grown so used to you somehow Well I'm nobody's sugar daddy now And I'm lonesome I got the lovesick blues I'm lonesome I got the lovesick blues I'm lonesome I got the lovesick blues

Shady Grove 02:36
Cheeks as red as a blooming rose And the eyes of the prettiest brown She's the darling of my heart The sweetest little girl in town Shady Grove, my little love Shady Grove I say Shady Grove, my little love I'm a-goin' away [instrumental] I went to see little Shady Grove She was standing by the door Her shoes and stockings in her hand And her little bare feet on the floor Shady Grove, my little love Shady Grove I say Shady Grove, my little love I'm a-goin' away [instrumental] Peaches in the summer time Apples in the fall If I can’t have the girl I love I won't have none at all Shady Grove, my little love Shady Grove I say Shady Grove, my little love I'm a-goin' away Shady Grove, my little love Shady Grove I say Shady Grove, my little love I'm a-goin' away

Salty Dog 03:09
Standin on the corner with the low down blues A great big hole in the bottom of my shoes Honey let me be your salty dog Let me be your salty dog Or I don't wanna be your man at all Honey let me be your salty dog Now lookie here Sal, I know you A run down stocking and a wore-out shoe Honey let me be your salty dog Let me be your salty dog Or I don't wanna be your man at all Honey let me be your salty dog [instrumental] I's down in the wildwood settin' on a log Finger on my trigger and an eye on a hog Honey let me be your salty dog Let me be your salty dog Or I don't wanna be your man at all Honey let me be your salty dog I pulled the trigger and the gun said go Shot fell over in Mexico Honey let me be you salty dog Let me be your salty dog Or I don't wanna be your man at all Honey let me be your salty dog [instrumental] Let me be your salty dog Or I don't wanna be your man at all Honey let me be your salty dog Let me be your salty dog Or I don't wanna be your man at all Honey let me be your salty dog

about

The Abbott Brothers Santa Cruz, California

Mix together old-time brother duets from the mountains and good ol’ honky-tonk country songs, add in some blazing bluegrass- style solos and tight sibling harmonies, and you get an idea of what an Abbott Brothers show is like. The songs are fresh takes on time-tested gems of old. But beneath that new-band sheen lies a pair of brothers that have been intimately comfortable on stage for years. ... more
