This is a Lightnin' song that shows his deep knowledge of the great Texas blues tradition. It comes from a Blind Lemon Jefferson song, "Beggin' Back." It is unusual for Lightnin' because it features a moving base as in the East Coast Piedmont style rather than his usual single base style. Plus it is played in the key of C which was not used a lot by Lightnin'. It shows how versatile Lightnin' really was.
