------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guitar arrangements of Jack McGann.
Many of you may not recognize Jack McGann's name as a guitarist since he never recorded commmercially. You may however recognize the arrangement. Jack was highly regarded among his peers for his arrangements of traditional blues, ragtime, and swing music. He was also one of the most respected and admired acoustic guitar teachers of the '70s and '80s. His arrangements have been passed on by his students, grand-students, peers, peers' students, etc.
Jack was also a social activist, and became nationally known for his fight for equal health care coverage for persons with AIDS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few years ago I heard one of Eric Schoenberg's students play the accompaniment from this piece, but he didn't know Jack's break. So here are both. Notice the stepwise bass line (one of Jack's trademarks).
As I recall, Pat Sky sang a very similar version and may have recorded it.

Ch: Make me down a pallet on your floor Make me down a pallet on your floor Make it soft, make it low, so my good gal will never know you Made me down a pallet on your floor
Big leg Ida don't you cry this time My lovin' Ida don't you cry this time if you Cry for a nickel you might die for a dime so you can Cry all you want to baby, but your money don't mind.
Ch.
I woke up this morning, there's women on my mind 2x well, Yesterday was whiskey, tomorrow might be wine 'cause Important things is always on my mind.
Ch.
I got the blues so bad I can hardly see 3x Ain't no-one ever had these old blues like me
