Description:
An old jug band song from the Memphis area that was first recorded by Gus Cannon in the 20's. I learned this version from the Lovin Spoonful a folk rock group from the 60's.

Lyrics:
Listen up people about to sing a song
Going to Saint Louie and It won't be long
Cause I'm wild about my lovin
I like to have my fun
If you want to be a girl of mine you've got to
bring it with you when you come

Sargeant Jones, chief of police the women round here won't give me no peace
You hear me talking to you, I don't bite my toungue

Hello Central what's the matter with your line
I want to talk to that high brown of mine
Cause I'm wild about my lovin, I like to have my fun,
If you want to be a girl of mine you've got to bring it with you when you come

Valley'. Great rootsy sound...you have the soul!

Yo Steve, how goes it in the fair isle! That rootsy sound comes from digging
potatoes in me mum's garden as a wee little lad!

Nice going

Hey Bill, how are those California stars? Who does that song? They play it all
the time on my fav radio station. Anyway, I agree that I have developed a
definite style somewhere between blues and country. Now all I have to do is
find a way to make it more popular. Ah well, the limitations of birth I
suppose.

Where were the jugs!? &mdash 11/14/05 - 08:22:47 PM
Oh, you meant those kinds of jugs...my bad. :)

Nicely done, Bronco. Nice to hear some home-grown music. It's amazing
that so many country and blues artists were born and raised within an
hour of where I was born and live now, but I learned about most of them,
including Cannon, in a "Roots of Rock Music" class in college taught by a
Yankee. Go figure.

Enjoyed it.

Well they have a group in Austin right now called the South Austin Jug Band
and they don't have a jug either . . . or two! The Lovin Spoonful, where I
actually learned this song, didn't have a jug either but used forbidden things
like drums and electric guitars. So I guess my version would be about half
way between theirs and the original.

What can I say? Jugs or no jugs it's just nice listenin' music. Laid back
and easy-going.

Nice Piece!

Hey David! One of my real turn on's about playing guitar is to take a basic
three chord song like this and make the guitar playing sound fresh and
ineventive. I actually like the guitar on this one myself and usually I'm my own
worst critic,

I wish you had wrote that &mdash 02/07/06 - 07:28:45 PM
I was so excited when I first put it on. It was like I had discovered
robert johnson or something. But then I saw it was a cover. anyway
what the hell, nice performance and great picking, cut off that last
strum at the end though, leave us with the solo notes floating in the
air.

Love the guitar in this one. Very "Folsom Prison" in the chord progression
and melody, but nice. Cool voice. Thanks for a great listen!

lovely song! &mdash 02/12/06 - 03:05:41 PM
Love the feel of this, reminds me a bit of the beatles song Come together! Somehow, but a lot better of course!! Another great tune Tom!
