lyrics

Up on Blue Ridge Mountain, there I’ll take my stand x2
Pistol in my pocket, rifle in my hand
I’ve been all around this world

Hang me oh hang me I’ll be dead and gone x2
It’s not the hanging that I mind it’s lying in the jail so long
I’ve been all around this world

Working on a new railroad I’ve got mud up to my knees x2
You know that John Henry, he’s so hard to please
I’ve been all around this world

Hang me oh hang me I’ll be dead and gone x2
It’s not the hanging that I mind it’s lying in the jail so long
I’ve been all around this world

Mama and Papa and little sister make three x2
They’ve all come to see me, hanging from the gallows tree
I’ve been all around this world

Hang me oh hang me I’ll be dead and gone x2
It’s not the hanging that I mind it’s lying in the jail so long
I’ve been all around this world
I’ve been all around this world…

about

Cory Seznec Paris, France

Somewhere between musical wanderer and uncertified ethnomusicologist dwells the artist Cory Seznec and his unique world.
A French-American in Paris, Seznec’s fingerstyle guitar-playing is syncopated, polyrhythmic, cross-pollinated, and idiosyncratic. He also sings, plays old-time banjo, and wades in the deep river of American song.
