I'm In Korea

      Recorded April 1954
      Written by J.B. Lenoir
      Yes I am in Korea,
      North-east side of Kim-Foy
      Yes I am in Korea,
      North-east side of Kim-Foy
      Lord I don't have no idea,
      I never will see you no more

I'm on a hill called Ten Sixty-Two,
      Machine guns firing all over my head
      I'm on a hill called Ten Sixty-Two,
      Machine guns firing all over my head
      Darling I was thinking about my kids and you
      If I die, what you goin' do?

I [?] to wonder
      Have you forgot just what I said?
      I [?] to wonder
      Have you forgot just what I said?
      Don't let nobody lay their head down in my bed
   

Eisenhower Blues
      Performed by J.B. Lenoir
      Recorded April 1954
      Written by J.B. Lenoir

Hey everybody, I was talkin' to you
      I ain't tellin' you jivin', this is the natural truth
      Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues
      Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

My money's gone, my fun is gone
      The way things look, how can I be here long?
      Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues
      Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

Taken all my money, to pay the tax
      I'm only givin' you people, the natural facts
      I only tellin' you people, my belief
      Because I am headed straight on relief
      Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues
      Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

Ain't got a dime, ain't even got a cent
      I don't even have no money to pay my rent
      My baby needs some clothes, she needs some shoes
      Peoples I don't know what I'm gonna do
      Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues
      Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

I make a judgment of the condition of the record based on a visual inspection and having been played on my Esoteric transcription turntable. Please understand that the grade I assign is subjective.
         
      E+  "Excellent plus." Minimal  effects of age. Slightly  surface noise, clicks, pops  etc.
      E  "Excellent." Some slight evidence of age or handling (fine  scratches, scuffs, rubs). Minimal groove wear. May show some very minor grey  traces in grooves.
      E-  "Excellent minus." Very close to "E" but with slightly more  wear from handling and age.
      VG+ "Very  good plus." Obvious wear, but not excessive. Slightly more surface noise. Not as choice as the higher grades, but what one would expect of a  record that was actually used for many  years. And can be still quite enjoyable.
      VG "Very  Good." As "very good" implies the record will still play quite  well. However, there is more wear and  tear than with "VG+" grade. There is moderate surface noise.
      G "Good." Serviceable but not great. Quite a bit of wear.
