Daddy, Where You Been So Long? by Jimmie Strothers

Daddy, Where You Been So Long? - Jimmie Strothers,
Banjo, C position.

She calls me honey when I comes in town
Big black nigger when I'm gone
Just as soon as I return with a ten dollar bill
It's "Daddy, where you been so long?"

Boys, it's "Daddy, where you been
Daddy, where you been
Daddy, where you been so long?"

Oh the train runs north and killed a man
Mile and a half from town
Yes, his head was found in a drivin' wheel
Yes, his body has never been found

Train run north one rainy day
Mile and a half from town
Killed a man, a innocent man
Left so far from home
