[00:01.36]Lynyrd Skynyrd  -  The Ballad Curtis Of Loew
[00:09.88]Well I used to wake the mornin’ … before the rooster crowed
[00:17.09]
[00:18.21]Searchin’ for soda bottles to get myself some dough
[00:25.83]Run 'em down to the corner … down to the country store
[00:31.13]
[00:32.63]Cash 'em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Leow
[00:38.10]Old Curt was a black man with white curly hair
[00:45.04]
[00:46.37]When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care
[00:51.44]
[00:52.56]He used to own an old Dobro … used to play it across his knees
[00:58.55]
[00:59.36]I'd give old Curt my money … he'd play all day for me
[01:05.37]
[01:06.33]Play me a song Curtis Leow … Curtis Leow
[01:11.21]
[01:12.47]Well I got your drinkin' money … tune up your Dobro
[01:17.47]People said he was useless … them people all were fools
[01:25.98]
[01:26.67]'Cause Curtis Leow was the finest picker to ever play the blues
[01:33.15]
[01:40.88]He looked to be sixty … and maybe I was ten
[01:46.30]
[01:47.35]Mama used to whup me but I'd go see him again
[01:52.98]
[01:53.92]I'd clap my hands, stomp my feets, try to stay in time
[01:59.30]
[02:00.05]He'd play me a song or two then take another drink of wine
[02:05.85]
[02:06.98]Play me a song Curtis Leow … Curtis Leow
[02:11.92]
[02:13.25]Well I got your drinkin' money … tune up your Dobro
[02:18.32]
[02:19.53]People said he was useless … them people all were fools
[02:27.55]'Cause Curtis Leow was the finest picker to ever play the blues
[02:33.57]
[02:34.13]Yesssir
[02:40.29]
[03:35.08]On the day ol' Curtis died nobody came to pray
[03:40.23]
[03:41.41]Ol' preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay
[03:46.94]
[03:48.06]Well he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues
[03:53.63]
[03:54.57]And on the day he lost his life that's all he had to lose
[04:00.25]
[04:01.37]Play me a song Curtis Leow … hey Curtis Leow
[04:06.33]
[04:07.58]I wish that you was here so everyone would know
[04:12.64]
[04:14.06]People said you were useless … them people all are fools
[04:20.55]
[04:21.69]'Cause Curtis you're the finest picker to ever play the blues
[04:27.80]
[04:35.17]Mmmmm …
