Thanks, Robert Pete Williams IMHO was the last great rural blues player, his life was hard as old leather & his back story can be read online & a few videos on youtube. When he sings about chain gangs, levee camps, shooting people etc he actually lived that life (he ended up charged with murder for shooting a guy in the stomach after the man told him to "Go pick some more cotton nigge* OR I'm gonna fuck you up" & for this he was given life.
This is another of his I really feel, the lyrics give me the chills.
