Chansons reprises : Baby, Please don't go

Chanson de blues de Big Joe Williams enregistrée le 31 octobre 1935 pour le label bluebird.

Big Joe Williams l'enregistre à nouveau pour Columbia records avec Sonny Boy Williamson .

La chanson devient su standard du blues et sera reprise par plusieurs bluesmen mais aussi par d'autres .

J'ai préféré ne proposer qu'une version non blues, celle de Ted Nugent pour ne pas couper le feeling des 1ères versions que j'ai choisies.

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 night long

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

You know your man down gone
You know your man down gone
You know your man down gone
To the country farm, with all the shackles on

Big Joe Williams

j'ai un peu honte de l'avouer mais c'est cette version-ci que je connais le plus (je ne connaissais pas le blues à l'époque)
