about

This is a traditional song which is one of my favourites to play. I don't tend to play many songs I haven't written, but I often start my shows with this one as it's such fun to play and always goes down really well. So I felt it was appropriate to put it on my debut EP (even though technically I'm a banjo frailin', not pickin', girl!).

lyrics

(Various lyrics exist for this song, but these are the ones I arranged for this version)

Goin’ round this world baby mine, oh I’m goin’ round this world baby mine
Oh I’m goin’ round this world, I’m a banjo pickin’ girl
I’m goin’ round this world baby mine

Oh I’ll go to Tennessee baby mine, yes I’ll go to Tennessee baby mine
Oh I’ll go to Tennessee, don’t you try to follow me
I’m goin’ to Tennessee baby mine

Goin’ round this world…

Oh I’ll go to North Carolina baby mine, yes I’ll go to North Carolina baby mine
Oh I’ll go to North Carolina, and from there on to China
Oh I’m goin’ on to China baby mine

Goin’ round this world…

Oh I’ll go to Chattanooga baby mine, yes I heard of Chattanooga baby mine
Oh I’ll go to Chattanooga, and from there on to Cuba
Oh I’ll find my way to Cuba baby mine

Goin’ round this world…

Oh if you ain’t got no money baby mine, oh if you ain’t got no money baby mine
Oh if you ain’t got no money, get yourself another honey
‘Cos I’m goin’ round this world baby mine

Goin’ round this world…
