Shady Lane Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now I've got a girl : she lives down in in Shady Lane
I love that girl : but I'm scared to call her name
It's going to be one of these mornings : swear and it won't be long
I'm going to catch the first thing smoking : and down the road I'm going
Where I long ain't here baby : it's way out in the west
In the Smoky Mountains : where the eagle builds his nest
Did you ever love a girl : a girl you hate to lose
Don't lose your temper : when you've been drinking booze
