Clifton Hicks - Hand Me Down My Old Suitcase
Banjo Heritage 👉 https://Patreon.com/CliftonHicks
I learned this song from George Gibson of Knott County, Kentucky. George learned it from his father, Mal Gibson, who played it for him one time, laid the banjo down, and declared, "Son, that was Clay Collins' favorite song."
My instrument is a late 1890s S.S. Stewart "Special Thoroughbred" banjo, relatively tuned to gCGCD.
Hand me down my old suitcase
And all of my dirty clothes,
Policeman comes around here tonight
Tell him I'm sleeping out of doors.
If you see my brother
Take him a letter from me,
Tell him not to ramble not to gamble
Not to leave his happy home.
If I'd listened to what my mother said
I wouldn't have been here to day,
I wouldn't have been in this old jailhouse
Rotting my sweet life away.
