"Ida Red" Performance
Added 2020-03-24 20:03:37 +0000 UTC"Ida Red" (gCGCE relative, f A# F A# D actual) also known as "Down the Road" and sometimes confused with "Cripple Creek." I mostly learned this song from George Gibson (of Knott County, Kentucky) and a recording of Coy Morton (also of Knott County, Kentucky).
Ida red Ida black
Wish I had old Ida back,
Down the road down the road
Everybody's looking off down the road.
Ida red with eyes of blue
I got drunk on Ida too,
Down the road about a mile-and-a-half
Seen old Ida dragging him back,
Down the road far as I been
All these women want rowdy men,

2020-03-26 02:08:59 +0000 UTCI notice you've been playing a Luscomb again recently. Is this your old one or have you acquired another one?
