Biografia:
Moran Lee "Dock" Boggs (February 7, 1898–February 7, 1971) was an influential old-time singer, songwriter and banjo player. His style of play, as well as his singing, is considered a unique combination of old-time Appalachian mountain music and the blues. Boggs is deemed by contemporary old-time musicians and performers as a seminal figure in old-time music, at least in part because of the appearance of two of his recordings from the 1920s, "Sugar Baby" and "Country Blues", on the influential Anthology of American Folk Music collection.

Drunkard's Lone Child (studio version)
Folk / Old Time / Traditional (performed by Dock Boggs)
[Verse]
D G D G D
I'm alone, all alone, my friends all have fled.
D F G D
My father, he's a drunkard; my mother, she is dead.
D C G D
I'm a poor little child and I wander and weep
D F D G D
For the voice of my mother to sing me to sleep.
[Chorus]
D G D G D
I'm alone, all alone, in this cold world so wild;
D F G D
God look down and pity a drunkard's child.
D C G D
In pity look down and hasten to me
D F D G D
And take me to dwell with mother and thee.
[Verse]
D G D G D
She sleeps on a hill in a bed of cold clay;
D F D F D
How sad it did seem to lay mother away.
D C G D
She is gone with the angels and none do I see;
D F D G D
So dear is the face of my mother to me.
[Chorus]
D G D G D
I'm alone, all alone, in this cold world so wild;
D F G D
God look down and pity a drunkard's child.
D C G D
In pity look down and hasten to me
D F D G D
And take me to dwell with mother and thee.
[Verse]
D G D G D
It is springtime on earth and the birds are so glad;
D F D F D
I listen and I wonder, my heart is so sad.
D C G D
Sweet flowers around and strangers pass by,
D F D G D
But the form of my mother no longer is nigh.
