West End Blues Lyrics


So tall and slender
Daddy was a charmer
He was a handsome man
But when he'd move it
Lord the ladies lose it
Daddy was a dancin' man
When he was dancing
Daddy swept the floor
He called it siftin' sand
So light and graceful
Not a step was wasteful
Daddy was a dancin' man
And when the young men
They'd come a-courtin'
They'd try to take my hand
They'd buck and wing
But it didn't mean a thing

'cause Daddy was the dancin' man
So tall and slender
Daddy was a charmer
He was a handsome man
But when he'd move it
Lord the ladies lose it
Daddy was a dancin' man

The Carolina Chocolate Drops are a group of young African-American stringband musicians that have come to together to play the rich tradition of fiddle and banjo music in Carolinas’ piedmont. Rhiannon Giddens and Justin Robinson both hail from the green hills of the North Carolina Piedmont while Dom Flemons is native to sunny Arizona. Although we have diverse musical backgrounds, we draw our musical heritage from the foothills of the North and South Carolina.
