Jesse sings an old Erie Canal song, the text of which was found written in pencil on an old book. The tune, written by George Ward, appears in the folk singer’s collection “Oh! That Low Bridge!: Songs of the Erie Canal.” Jesse learned “Song of the Diggers” after Carrie pointed it out on George Ward’s CD.

He recorded this rendition of the song at the Niagara County Historical Society in Lockport, NY.

Sing along:

Whether you know or notice,
You’re stuck attached to past,
The past is like a name
You call when you say your own…

Your name here. etc.

Reprise

After my singing school today at the Rome Art and Community Center, I wanted to write something about how incredibly hoarse my voice was, but I figured I’d post audio instead so you could hear for yourself.
