McKenzie manuscripts, Summer 1961
first transcribed by Chris C. in "Isis", No. 44, Aug-Sep 1992

Got Colorado blues I feel so bad,
Got Colorado blues I feel so bad,
Thinking about the times I, once had

Central City ain't no friend of mine,
Central City ain't no friend of mine.

Denver towns a sad kind of place to stay,
I wish I was back in the good ol' USA.

Get me a freight train head down the track,
You'll have to put out a load ** money boys for to get me back.
