Little Walter takes "This Train" and changes it from a religious song (this
train is bound for glory, this train, this train don't carry no gamblers,
this
train) to "My Babe."
I think Willie Dixon was the thief that time. LW received stolen goods
though, bang to rights.
Anyone ever notice Sister Rosetta Tharpe's totally original additional verse
to that song: 'this train don't carry no wa***ers'? Tell it like it is,
sister.
