I'm just a corner lady.
Well, I'm just a little partner.
Now I'm just gonna take some trouble up four and a half way around.
Now, we'll go to the home of Bill McElree in Buncombe County, who's a man almost my age.
I'm 83, but Bill's about 76, [Bbm] something like that.
And he can do that just like the young men.
Well, [G] let's go see it.
[D] [G]
I'm just a corner lady.
Well, I'm just a little partner.
Well, I'm just a little partner.
Well, I'm just a little lady.
That's pretty good.
[D] [Em] Now that type of dancing,
[G] [Em] of course, not done as possibly skillfully as he's done that.
But the dancing, knocking out the tune to the feet, [N] going all the way through the square dance,
makes our mountain traditional dancing very attractive from the standpoint of entertainment.
[C]
Oh, how he dances, oh, grand old man.
Can't you see that you're a grand old man?
Oh, this is a sweet old man, this is a grand old man.
[Gm] [C]
[G] [C]
Get the banjo that you started the festival with me [E] for.
Thirty-nine years ago, he's got the little banjo that he started that festival with.
Boy, that's good.
I used to be a little better than him now, but [G] I, oh, I don't know.
[A] Now that little banjo, [Gm] it's good.
He's played that one, back when he, along to the day with Rambo,
he and his brother [Gb] and the [N] Melvin, Vaughn Medford.
[Bb]
[B]
Nine years ago, he used to do this.
I will be honest with you.
Oh,
[Em] [N] that's a pretty thing.
I'd like to have it.
Oh, I just got one, and I bought another one for a fella for accommodation the other day.
Didn't need it, but I want to get her a better one.
Would you sell it?
Would you sell it?
Yeah, I've been a, I've been a fan of that.
I'll tell you what I'll do.
I'll give you two for one.
I'll give you two guitars for that.
I don't know.
You know what I'll say.
I kind of promised her to give it to her.
She don't, I think she don't want it.
Well, I want to get a little one and a good one.
That's a real good one.
Oh, that's not the only way.
I know.
And I bought that one.
It cost me a good deal, and I'll, I'll do that.
I meant to, I bought [Em] it [Ab] knowing that I was [G] going to try to get rid of both of them and give her a better one.
Sing, uh, East Virginia blues.
I can't.
Well, I, I, I sure can't.
I'm a pick-pocketer.
My daughter, [C] uh, you have the pick-pocketer [G] thingies.
[D]
[G] You can keep the picks you want.
Well, thank you, mister.
Oh, you don't have any of that.
I have some at home, [Eb] but I didn't know what kind of music they was going to [A] have or them [G] bring.
Born in me, East Virginia.
[C] Lost a lot, [G]
[C] met a [G] fair young lady.
But [D] her name [G] I do not know.
Well, I don't want three black doves.
[C] I don't want your [G] boy's complaint.
[C] All I want [G] is your heart, darling.
Lay down, darling.
[D] I'll take [G] the black dove.
