Lake Fork Verne and his banjo. Original country and Americana songs. Songs of yesteryear, growing up during the great depression 1930's and the way things are
Just me and my banjo...writing and singing about how things used to be long ago in the 30;s and 40's and how those experiences affect today. I started out wanting to get on record these stories and songs for my grandchildren; but after doing it for a while, others have expresses interest so we are recording and putting them out there.

Lyrics
A MAN WITHOUT A WOMAN (SILVER DOLLAR) (Alfred Williams, ca. 1907) Billy Murray - 1908 Done here by: Lake Fork Verne in Key of D, Banjo tuned E Capo 1 Assume this 1908 orig song to be in public domain and this is my version of it....v.g. Now you can roll a silver dollar down to the ground And it'll roll, 'cause it's round. A woman never knows what a good man she's got, Until she puts him down! So listen, my honey, listen to me, I want you to understand, Just like a silver dollar goes from hand to hand, A woman goes from man to man. (Without a doubt). A woman goes from man to man. A man without a woman is like a ship without a sail, Is like a boat without a rudder, a kite without a tail. A man without a woman is like a wreck upon the sand, And if there's one thing worse, in this universe, It's a woman, I said, a woman, it's a woman without a man! (Transcribed by Ralph Butts)
