[Intro] G [Verse] G DeFord was a man from Castlewood, Tenn' G Blowed on that harp both night and day G How he wailed on them reeds 'til his lips would bleed G Played 'til the Lord knows when D Just a little baby boy with a silver toy D And the polio strikin' Fire and wind D At four foot nine, Just one of his kind G The greatest there ever been [Chorus] C G Blow, blow, DeFord, blow C D Play that Pan-American G F G Oh, oh, where did he go? D G DeFord Bailey rides again [Verse] G Arise, gals and gents, for the show to commence G There's a good-nature riot on the air G Little DeFord's on the loose with them Muscle Shoals Blues G Let the Jim Crow South beware D Like the fox chasin' game D He was black balled and shamed D Stripped out the silver From his hand D Now, it's welfare lines And a dollar shine G Singin', "Oh, Lord, Ain't I a man?" [Chorus] C G Blow, blow, DeFord, blow C D Play that Pan-American G F G Oh, oh, where did he go? D G DeFord Bailey rides again [Solo] C G C D G C G [Verse] G Then he played his last Note, in The Banner they wrote G "Must have been those Ice Water Blues" G Now, up in Greenwood you'll find a plot, four foot nine G For our city's biggest shame, They whitewashed his name G For that kind of sin, There ain't no excuse [Chorus] C G Blow, blow, DeFord, blow C D Play that Pan-American G F G Oh, oh, where did he go? G DeFord Bailey rides again C G Blow, blow, DeFord, blow C D Playin' up in glory land G Whoa, oh, where did he go? D G DeFord Bailey rides again G DeFord Bailey rides again F G DeFord Bailey rides again
