Silver City Bound

Yeah

This a song

Was sung by Leadbelly

And it was written for his friend

He had a friend named Blind Lemon

And they used to ride back and forth

On a train from somewhere to Texas

And I learned this tune

From a record I heard by him

Silver city bound

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna tell my little baby

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

Gonna ride on down

Silver city bound

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna tell my little baby

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

Gonna ride on down

Take me by the hand

Oh, babe

And lead me to the promised land

Take me by the hand

Oh, babe

And lead me to the promised land

Silver city bound

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna tell my little baby

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

Gonna ride on down

Take me by the hand

Oh, babe

And lead me to the promised land

Take me by the hand

Oh, baby

And lead me to the promised land

I'm silver city bound

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna tell my little baby

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

Gonna ride on down

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

Gonna ride on down

Silver city bound

Silver city bound

I'm gonna tell my little baby

I'm silver city bound

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

Gonna ride on down

I'm gonna meet Blind Lemon

I'm gonna ride on down
