  • This is an old song with many verses and styles. It’s beginner friendly too. I’m in a lower relative tuning of double C.
    My lovely banjo was made by Ryan Navey of Carolina Banjo Company www.carolinaba...

    Great song, and i love your banjo playing! I know a song called "Sugar John", that uses the line "Who's been here since i been gone". Play that sometime. I' m sure you know a great version! Thanks and peace! ✌🏼

    Thats a pretty nice version. I play it the Clifton Hicks way, in standard G. Did you learn it in double C from a RUclips video?
    Btw, you should record a lot more videos. Your music is clearly your own way, and I like that a lot.

    • @emilyellisrichards9144

      I played this in C or something relative to it. I listened to Furry Lewis and Jackson Lynch and figured it out from there. Thank you!

      Going back to where I’m from
      Going back to mobile county
      My man died and left me a bounty
      The way these big men work around me
      The reason I’m going to mobile county
      I had a dog and his name was blue
      Oh yeah he’s a goodin too
      He treed possum out on a limb
      It looked at me and I looked at him
      Hey rain hey rain
      Hey rain hey rainin
      Who’s been here since i been gone
      Pretty little girl with a red dress on
      Who’s been here since i been gone
      Pretty little girl with the red dress on
      Now Blue laid and died like a man
      Blue laid down and died like a man
      Now he is waitin in the promised land
      Now when i hear old blues bark
      He treein possums in Noah’s ark
      Hear ring
      Hear ringing
      Who’s been here since i been gone
      Pretty little girl with the red dress on
