Train Fare Home
for the Frantic One--Ernie Durham
"We was down around Monroe & Shreveport, Louisiana," Muddy Waters recalls. "Had a little tour down there
with a disc jockey, called him the Groovy Boy. 'Juke' had just come out & we went in
this club one night & the people were playing that record. Every tim the jukebox would ring,
'Juke,' 'Juke,' 'Juke.' Little Walter couldn't stand that jive.
"The next day he grab a train, pssssssshhhhh, back to Chicago. When me & Jimmy got back, Walter asked me, 'Wh-wh-
where my money?'--like for the rest of the tour? I said, 'I thought you brought it wit-cha...'"
Yeah, mother fucker, I thought you brought it wit-cha!
