Biography:
Moran Lee "Dock" Boggs (February 7, 1898–February 7, 1971) was an influential old-time singer, songwriter and banjo player. His style of play, as well as his singing, is considered a unique combination of old-time Appalachian mountain music and the blues. Boggs is deemed by contemporary old-time musicians and performers as a seminal figure in old-time music, at least in part because of the appearance of two of his recordings from the 1920s, "Sugar Baby" and "Country Blues", on the influential Anthology of American Folk Music collection.

Sitting alone, sad, all alone,
G D7
Sitting in my cell all alone,
G C
Just thinking of those good times gone by me,
D7 G
Knowing that I once had a home.

For seven long years I've been in prison,
D7 G
For seven long more I have to stay;
G C
Just for knocking a man down in an alley,
D7 G
And taking his gold watch away.

I once did have a sister and a brother,
D7 G
I wonder if they ever think of me?

I once did have a father and a mother

Who lived in a cottage by the sea.
