Who's Gonna Shoe Your Pretty Little Foot

Who's gonna shoe your pretty little foot.
Who's gonna glove your hand,
Who's gonna kiss your red ruby lips,
Who's gonna be your man.

Papa's gonna shoe my pretty little foot,
Mama's gonna glove my hand,
Sister's gonna kiss my red ruby lips,
I don't need no man.

The longest train I ever saw
Was a hundred coaches long,
The only woman I ever saw
Was on this train and gone.

I'm going to have to get my autoharp in tune so I can follow along with the series. Mine is an old one that I refurbished and refelted to play in in G A and D.

Hi Marc! I definitely want to follow along and I'm interested in more lessons. However, I do not yet have an autoharp. Do you have any recommendations for where to go to look for a good quality beginner autoharp? Thanks!

I have a website. http://autoharpmusic.com You can get a starter autoharp via Amazon (affiliate links are listed there). Ideally, the chord bars need to be rearranged. But it's a good starting place. (Looks like I need to update some links there) There are also some autoharp stores listed there as well. Including d'Aigle autoharps. They do my repair work. It's worth checking them out for any used autoharps. I prefer older used autoharps. but they do require setup. So might be worth starting on something simple like at Amazon.
