I got a letter this mornin’,
this is they way my letter read;
I got a letter this mornin’,
this is the way my letter read:

“Come on home, Muddy Waters!
They tell me your baby’s dead!“
I start to write,
but I believe I’ll go myself.
No, I ain’t goin’ write,
I believe I’ll go myself:
A letter too slow,
they tell me a telegram may get left.

I hate to go home this mornin’, boys!

There’ll be a crowd of people
standin’ out before my baby’s house;
there’ll be a crowd of people
standin’ out before my baby’s house.
And they everybody’ll all be wond’rin’,
“What in the world all this racket about.”

Yeyeahh!!

Said I wasn’t goin’
’til my baby be in the groun’.
No, I ain’t goin’
’til my baby be in the groun’;
I’ll be standin’ right there
when the gravedigger let her down!

Some of the links I provided should get you there, though. There's a lot about him on the Net. Library of Congress has a great deal about him, thanks to Alan Lomax, most especially. Lomax was the Columbus of the Blues, and a fascinating individual in his own right. He "discovered" some of the greatest musical geniuses ever and recorded them. Of course, they were always there. Lomax and others just got the rest of us in touch with a vast nexus of national soul. Interesting about the violin player. I think the best musicians are genre athletes, able to leap from one to another.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('274','Cuchulain'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('274','Cuchulain','Robert, not sure about the name of that song.

And rightly so, you seem them standing on stage in a packed hall with the supporting orchestra behind them, the conductor in partnership to the side, in their beautiful posture with their elegantly-designed instruments filling and thrilling with their sweet and richly ringing tones. One of my favorites among them is Hilary Hahn because she writes her own liner notes and provides a lot of context and knowledge; and it was she who said that Muddy Waters is one of her favorites, and it was she who turned me on to Muddy Waters, and I am indebted to her for the recommendation and and pleased to be able to second your enthusiasm.
