WATERBOUND. AKA and see “Stay All Night,” "Way Down in North Carolina." Old Time, Song/ piece. USA, Virginia. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Silberber): AABB (Kuntz). This piece is originally from Roscoe Holcomb, though the Bogtrotters also recorded an early version of the song.
Chickens crowin' in the old plowed field, (x3)
Down in North Carolina.
Refrain (Verses 1, 3)
Waterbound and I can't go home, (x3)
I have to stay till morning.
Bill and Charlie lets go home, (x3)
Before the water rises.
The water's up and I can't get across, (x3)
I'll ride the old white horse.
The old man's mad but I don't care, (x3)
Just so I get his daughter.
If he don't give her up I'm a gonna run away, (x3)
Down in North Carolina.
Waterbound and I can't go home, (x3)
Down in North Carolina. (Kuntz)
