Bruce Springsteen - Pay Me My Money Down


This is the music video to the Bruce Springsteen's version of the song "Pay Me My Money Down". The song was originally a work song that originated from the African-American stevedores working in Georgia. The text was first collected and published in 1942. The melody of the song is much older and was used in other songs as well.
The song done by Springsteen was his first single from his 2006 big band folk album "We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions". It got quite popular and the song would very often close Springsteen's set on the subsequent tour upon the album's release.
It's a great folk song. It's up beat and bound to put you in a good mood.

Enjoy ; )
