Baby Please Don't Go - Lightnin' Hopkins style on a 1925 Gibson L3 - TAB avl

TAB AND VIDEOLESSON www.daddystovep...
or www.daddystove...
I transcribed the whole song.
Standard tuning key of E
Big Joe Williams, who recorded this in the 30ies in open G tuning is credited as composer. Lightnin' made a personal version in the key of E.
Here's the first one he recorded in the late 40ies
• Lightnin' Hopkins - Ba...
quite different to the one he recorded in the 60ies, on which my version is based.
LYRICS
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go, down to New Orleans
You know I love you so
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
I get you way'd out here, and let you walk alone
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
I beg you all night long, baby, please don't go
You brought me way down here
You brought me way down here
You brought me way down here
'Bout to Rolling Forks, you treat me like a dog
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go, back the New Orleans
I beg you all…

    I love how it's a bit more rhythmical than Lightning's version. It has a bit more swing to it... Tomorrow morning, first thing, I will sit and play this song in this rhythmical way (without the amazing solo's hahah). LOVE IT!

    Lightnin was the coolest! Loved him from the first time I heard him! Then when I saw video of him I thought he was twice as cool! The way he moves and swaggers with the guitar. You got it down, man! It's all part of the Lightnin feel. Thank you for your videos and sharing with all of us. It's a big help to so many of us up and coming blues players and a great tool in keeping the blues alive!
