Mick Thread #31041 Message #1649978 Posted By: Stewie 16-Jan-06 - 11:24 PM Thread Name: ADD: Uncle Dave Macon Lyrics Subject: ADD: Poor Sinners, Fare You Well Here is the transcription from book accompanying the Bear Family box set. I don't think what is in the square brackets is accurate, but I don't know what it should be either. |

(include the stop after 32)). Mick |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Poor Sinners Fare Thee Well From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 22 Jun 06 - 12:44 AM Refresh. There was no need to start a new thread. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Poor Sinners Fare Thee Well From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 22 Jun 06 - 12:55 AM This looks like one of those songs that is based partly on floating verses. Macon (and others) often vary the song each time they sing it. The words in the Macon thread linked by Mick Pearce may be as good as you will find. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Poor Sinners Fare Thee Well From: GUEST Date: 28 Mar 24 - 02:06 PM Early Upchurch and the Friendly Quartet sing a version of this (or something very like it) on his Hymns of the Hills record under the title “Golden Slippers” |
