Odetta Holmes (December 31, 1930 – December 2, 2008), known as Odetta, was an American singer, actress, guitarist, songwriter, and a civil and human rights activist, often referred to[who?] as "The Voice of the Civil Rights Movement". Her musical repertoire consisted largely of American folk music, blues, jazz, and spirituals. An important figure in the American folk music revival of the 1950s and 1960s, she was influential to many of the key figures of the folk-revival of that time, including Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Mavis Staples, and Janis Joplin. Time included her song "Take This Hammer" on its list of the All-Time 100 Songs, stating that "Rosa Parks was her No. 1 fan, and Martin Luther King Jr. called her the queen of American folk music." more »

Believe I'll go
Believe I'll go
Don't feel welcome here oh lord lord
Believe I'll go
Cos I don't feel welcome here
Believe I'll go
Cos I don't feel welcome here

Soon is moaning
Soon is moaning
Just about ten past four
Soon is moaning just about ten-to-four
My baby turned over said 
I can't use you no more

Baby left this morning, left this morning
Just about half past for oh lord
Left us moaning just about half past four
He took all his clothes and he walked right out of my door

Love my man, love my man
Tell the world I do lord lord
Lord love my man and I tell the world I do
And hoping someday he'll come to love me too

Love my man, love my man
Tell the world I do lord lord
Lord love my man and I tell the world I do
And hoping someday he'll come to love me too

Believe I'll go believe I'll go
Don't feel welcome here oh lord lord
Believe I'll go
Cos I don't feel welcome here
Believe I'll go
Cos I don't feel welcome here
