There may be others, but I have only two sources for my version, George Landers on Rounder CD 0028 and my brother, who learned it somewhere in North Carolina. I perform the song in the Old Time way of singing a chorus and verse, then play the tune through once, and repeat, ending up with the chorus and an instrumental run-through at the end. You can hear my version on the Music Page of my website: www.PricklyPearMusic.net. Rolling Mills Are Burning Down Chorus: Oh, them rollin' mills are burnin' down (plumb on down), Oh, them rollin' mills are burnin' down, Well, them rollin' mills are burnin' down, down, down, And I don't believe they'll be here anymore. Well, now darlin', oh darlin, come here. Well, now come and sit down by my side, Now they say that the best of friends must go and part some day, And why not you and I. (Chorus) Now bring my revolver here. Come and shoot out my brains. For I'd rather be dead and buried in my grave Than to be in the trouble I'm in. (Chorus) There's a pain in my fingers I know, There's a pain all down in my toe, There's a pain all down in my true lover's side Where sombody fooled her I know.
