I went down to my baby's house and I sit down on her steps. She said, now come on in now, you know, my husband just left.

I wanted to get out of Mississippi in the worst way. Go back? What I want to go back for?

Ain't nobody's business, if I bark like a dog.

All the kids made their own git-tars. Made mine out of a box and bit of stick for a neck. Couldn't do much with it, but that's how you learn.
