Clifton Hicks - Shortnin Bread
I learned "Shortnin Bread" from a 1970s field recording of Lewis "Big Sweet" Hairston of Henry County, Virginia. My instrument is an 1888 Thompson & Odell "The Luscomb" banjo tuned ~ fCFAC (relative gDGBD).
Put on the skillet throw away the lid Momma's gonna bake that shortening bread,
That ain't all she gonna do she gonna give a little honey too!
Two little babies laying in the bed one rolled over and the other was dead,
Put on the skillet throw away the lid Momma's gonna bake that shortening bread!
Two old women laying in the sand each one wishing that the other was a man,
Put on the skillet throw away the lid Momma's gonna bake that shortening bread!
