Lay Down My Ole Guitar

Cat. #0788 (MFH #396) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on June 25, 1969

VERSE 1
I will lay down my ole guitar
I will lay down my ole guitar
I wish I could tie it to my side
An' take it along with me

VERSE 2
I'm sick in th lonesome bed
I'm sick in a lonesome bed
No one t' hold my ach'in head
I'm sick in th lonesome bed

VERSE 3
Gon'na lay down my ole guitar
Gon'na lay down my ole guitar
I wish I could tie it to my side
An' take it along with me

VERSE 4
I've no one t' cry for me
There's no one to cry for me
I wandered away so far, don't ya see
There's no one t' cry for me

VERSE 5
I will lay down my ole guitar
I will lay down my ole guitar
I wish I could tie it to my side
An' take it along with me
