Ginseng Sullivan
Recorded by Tony Rice
Written by Norman Blake

C
About three miles from the Battelle yard
F
From the reverse curve on down
C
Not far south of the town depot
Am Em
Sullivan's shack was found
G7 C
Back on the higher ground


You could see him every day
F
Walking down the line
C
With an old brown sack across his back
Am Em
And his long hair down behind
G7 C
Speaking his worried mind


It's a long way to the delta
F
From the North Georgia hills
C
A tote sack full of ginseng
F
Won't pay no travelling bills
A# C
Now I'm too old to ride the rails
Dm G7
Or thumb the road alone
C F C
So I guess I'll never make it back to home
F G7 C
My muddy water Mississippi delta home


The winters here they get too cold
F
The damp it makes me ill
C
Can't dig no roots in the mountain side
Am Em
With the ground froze hard and still
G7 C
Gotta stay at the foot of the hill


But next summer when things turn right
F
The companies will pay high
C
I'll make enough money to pay my bills
Am Em
And bid these mountains goodbye
G7 C
Then he said with a sigh

Repeat #3
