Since I was small, Leadbelly songs could keep a body moving & a toe tapping. Through kitchen drudgery, pickin' beans in the summer heat & droll times of being a cog in the machine of making those ends meet. Without this man having sang his songs, where would music be today?
Can you just imagine those 2 bad boys Huddie William Ledbetter & Rory Gallagher out on the Western Plains robbing banks, smoking cigars, drinking cool beers, upsetting the local sherif and causing havoc and have the times of their lives
Huddie William Ledbetter was nothing less then a master wordsmith, storyteller, songwriter, singer and poet, Listen to Rory Gallagher version of this song, Rory made this song so real that had a limp from a gunshot wound that he received from the bad boy Jesse James in the battle for Bunker Hill
