Karen Dalton (1938 – 1993) was an American folk singer and banjo player associated with the early 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene, particularly with Fred Neil and the Holy Modal Rounders as well as Bob Dylan. Her bluesy, world-weary voice is often compared to that of iconic jazz singer Billie Holiday. She sang blues, folk, country, pop, motown -- making over each song in her own inimitable style. She played the twelve string Gibson guitar and a long neck banjo. Her second album, In My Own Time (1971), was recorded at Bearsville studios, produced by Bob Dylan's former bass player Harvey Brooks, with liner notes by Fred Neil, originally released on Michael Lang's (Woodstock promoter) label, Just Sunshine. The cover photos were taken by Elliot Landy, and The Band's current piano player, Richard Bell, guested on the album. Less common is her first album for Capitol, It's Hard To Tell Who's Going To Love You The Best (1969), re-released by Koch Records in 1996. Known as "the folksinger's answer to Billie Holiday" and "Sweet Mother K.D.", it is said that the song Katie's Been Gone by The Band from the Basement Tapes was written about her. She struggled with drugs and alcohol for many years and died in 1993.
It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going to Love You the Best
Little bit of rain ( Fred Neil ) If I should leave you Try to remember all the good times Warm days filled with sunshine And just a little bit of rain And if you should look back Try to forget all the bad times Lonely blue and sad times And just a little bit of rain If I should leave you Try to remember all the good times Long days filled with sunshine Just a little bit of rain Just a little bit of rain Just a little bit of rain

In My Own Time
Something on Your Mind ( Dino Valenti ) Yesterday Any way you made it was just fine Saw you turn your days into night-times Didn't you know You can't make it without ever even trying And something's on your mind, isn't it Let these times Show you that you're breaking up your mind Leaving all your dreams too far behind Didn't you see You can't make it without ever even trying And something's on your mind, isn't it Maybe another day you'll want to feel another way You can't stop crying You haven't got a thing to say You're feeling you want to run away There's no use trying anyway I've seen the writing on the wall Who cannot maintain will always fall Didn't you know You can't make it without ever even trying And something's on your mind, isn't it Something's on your mind, isn't it Something's on your mind When a man loves a woman ( Calvin Lewis / Andrew Wright ) When a man loves a woman He can do no wrong He'd tell the world what a good thing he's found If she is bad, he can't see it Cause She can do no wrong He turn his back on his best friend if he put her down When a man loves a woman He'll give his very last dime Trying to hold on to what he needs And give up all his comforts And sleep out in the rain If she tells him that's the way it ought to be When a man loves a woman He give up everything he has Trying to hold on to your precious love Please don't treat me bad When a man loves a woman Deep down in his soul She can bring him such misery If she is playing him for a fool He's the last one to know Loving eyes can never see When a man loves a woman I know exactly how he feels 'Cause that's the way you've always been to me In my own dream ( Paul Butterfield ) I didn't know I could be fool It took me a long time To find out My mind Is upside down What I was standing on Too solid ground To satisfy That's what I thought I'd be I kept on living in my own dream In my own dream Everyday I grew blinder Oh I thought I was so strong I didn't need nobody's help Oh but the strongest river Can't flow up hill To satisfy That's what I thought I'd be I kept on living in my own dream In my own dream To satisfy That's what I thought I'd be I kept on living in my own dream, own dream In my own dream Katie Cruel ( Traditional ) When I first came to town They call me the roving jewel Now they've change their tune They call me Katie Cruel Through the woods I go And through the boggy mire Straight way down the road 'Til I come to my heart's desire If I was where I would be Then I would be where I am not Here I am where I must be Where I would, I can not When I first came to town They brought me drinks plenty Now they've changed their tune They bring me the bottles empty If I was where I would be Then I would be where I am not Here I am where I must be Where I would, I can not How sweet it is ( Holland Dozier ) How sweet it is to be loved by you Yes it is How sweet it is to be loved by you I close my eyes at night And wonder what would I be without you in my life Everything was just a bore All the things I did seems I'd done them before But you brighten up all of my days With you sweet love in so many ways I want to stop and thank you I want to stop and thank you How sweet it is to be loved by you Yes it is How sweet it is to be loved by you I needed the shelter of someone's arms And there you were I needed somebody to tell my ups and downs And there you were Your sweet love and devotion Deeply touching my emotions I want to stop and thank you I want to stop and thank you How sweet it is to be loved How sweet it is to be loved by you I needed the shelter of someone's arms And there you were I needed somebody to tell my ups and downs And there you were Your sweet love and devotion Deeply touching my emotions I want to stop and thank you, baby I wanna stop and thank you How sweet it is to be loved How sweet it is to be loved by you How sweet it is to be loved How sweet it is to be loved by you... In A Station ( Richard Manuel ) Once I walked through the halls of a station And someone called your name In the street I heard children laughing They all sound the same Wonder, could you ever know me Know the reason why I live Is there nothing you can show me Life seems so little to give Once I climbed to the top of a mountain And ate the wild fruit there Fell asleep until the moonlight woke me Dreaming I could touch your hair Isn't everybody dreaming! Then the voice I hear is real Out of all the idle scheming Can't we have something to feel Once upon a time leaves me empty Tomorrow never came I could hear the sound of your laughter Still I don't know your name Must be some way to repay you After all the good you gave If a rumour should delay you Love seems so little to save Oh save me... Take Me ( George Jones / L. Payne ) Take me in your darkest room Close every window and bolt every door The very first moment I heard your voice I'd be in darkness no more Take me to the most barren desert A thousand miles from the nearest sea The very moment I saw your smile It would be like heaven to me There's not any mountain too rugged to climb No desert too barren to cross Darling if you would just show a sign of love I could bear with all loss Take me to Siberia And the coldest weather of the winter time, And it would be just like spring in California As long as I knew you were mine
Same Old Man
( Traditional / Arranged by Steve Weber )
It's the same old lady, hanging out her wash Standing in the rain, wearing a mackintosh Same old lady standing in the rain Even the thought of New York was going insane Hey little leaf, lying on the ground Now you're turning slightly brown Why don't you get up on the tree Turn the color green the way you ought to be My mind is failing and my body grows weak My lips won't form the words I speak I'm floating away on a barrel of pain New York City won't see me again The same old man, sitting at the mill The mill turns around of its own free will I'm certainly glad to be home New York City will continue on alone
One night of love ( Joe Tate ) He gives me one night of love Sometimes he gives me two Hmm when I'm gone He don't even think my name It's got me down Down to the ground Looks like this whole world And my best friend got me down I gave him all my money All of my good loving too Ah, when I'm gone He don't even mention my name It's got me down Down to the ground Looks like this whole world And my best friend got me down It's got me down I'm just singing this song I wouldn't do anything wrong It's got me down I'm just telling the truth I can't show you no kind of proof It's got me down Got me down Down to the ground This whole world And my best friend got me down It's got me down One night of love Gives me one night of love One night of love One night of love One night of love Are you leaving for the country ( Richard Tucker ) Are you leaving for the country You say the city brings you down Leave the iron clown behind And feel the circus moving on Are you leaving for the country I know a little country town Where dogs are sleeping in the road And the flagpole's falling down Dying vines, hold the wheel in time Spread their weight and let the planet spin Do you feel like something's not real Let the spirit move you again Are you leaving for the country Do you feel like something's not real Let the spirit move you again Are you leaving for the country You say the city brings you downg Leave the iron clown behind And feel the circus moving on
