Ol' Joe Clark
Sam Bush (from Glamour and Grits)
By Darrell Scott (who calls it Banjo Clark)
[Verse]
DOl' Joe G5Clark he Dmade his mark
when cotton G5was the Dking
And late at G5night in the Dpale moon light
you could hear that C2banjo Dring
It would Gring out C2for the Dmaster
who was Glistening C2on the Dhill
It would ring out G5for the Dbabies
who were sleeping C2quiet Dstill
[Chorus]
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Round and round, I C2say
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Until the C2break of Dday
[Verse]
DWhen he came up G5from the Dbelly
Of that ship of G5slaveDry
He was holding G5to his Dbanjo
But it was not C2on his Dknee
And Gsomeone Csaid, "Hey Dhere's a strong one
And Ghe can CenterDtain
You can G5keep your Dbanjo,
But Clark will be C2your Dname"
[Chorus]
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Play it when I C2say
DRound and round old Joe Clark
or we'll carry C2you Daway
Singin' GRound and CroGunDd
GRound and CroGunDd
GRound and CroGunDd
[Verse]
DHe learned to G5play the Dmelodies
Of Cork and G5county DClaire
He even G5played for DLincoln once,
Down on the C2courthouse Dsquare
Then he Gwent down Cto DNew Orleans,
And they Gcall it CDixieDland
But everyG5where that Dold Joe went,
He was still a C2hired Dhand
[Chorus]
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Round and round, I C2say
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Until the C2break of Dday
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Round and round, I C2say
DRound and round old Joe Clark
Until the C2break of Dday
Singin' GRound and CroGunDd
GRound and CroGunDd
GRound and CroGunDd
