Odetta - Red Clay Country lyrics

Goin' back to the red clay country, Well, I'm goin' back to the red clay country, Goin' back to the red clay country, That's-a my home, little baby, That's-a my home. "Well, hello, cap'n, come to the window." I said, "Hello, cap'n, come to the window, Well, hello, cap'n, come to the window. Bow your head, little baby, Bow your head." "This ol' hammer little too heavy." I said, "This ol' hammer little too heavy, This ol' hammer little too heavy. Take it from my side, little baby, Take it from my side." "This ol' hammer ring like silver." I said, "This ol' hammer ring like silver, This ol' hammer ring like silver. Shine like gold, little baby, Shile like gold." Take my little hammer and I throwed it in the river, Well, I take my little hammer and throwed it in the river, Take my ol' hammer and I throwed it in the river, Ring right on, little baby, Ring right on. Goin' back to the red clay country, Well, I'm goin' back to the red clay country, Goin' back to the red clay country, That's-a my home, little baby, That's-a my home.
