Jay Gould's Daughter - Clawhammer Banjo Lesson

Get the Tab 👉   / cliftonhicks  
f♯DF♯AD - I learned this song from George Gibson of Knott County, Kentucky. In this tutorial I explain the history behind the song, and how the tune is played using traditional overhand (clawhammer) and two-finger banjo picking techniques.

Jay Gould's daughter said before she died
Daddy O Daddy don't let the bums ride,
If ride they must let them ride on the rod
They can put their lives in the hands of God...

Early one morning it began to rain
Around the corner came a passenger train,
Sitting on the bumper was Hobo John
He's a good old rounder but he's dead and gone...

Jay Gould's daughter said before she died
There's two more roads that I'd like to ride,
Tell me daughter what can they be?
The Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe...

Jay Gould's daughter said before she died
There's two more drinks that I'd like to try,
Tell me daughter what can they be?
Hot cup of coffee and a cold glass of tea...
