What Are You Going To Do? Long (VA) 1918 Sharp F
[My title. From English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians by Sharp/Karpeles I, 1932, single verse with music. This is a middle verse and logically there were more but Sharp did not provided them. A second ending verse is given from Sharp MS 4314/3083 (Bronson 16).

F. What Are You Going To Do?- Sung by Mrs. J. L. LONG at Villamont, Va., June 4, 1918.
Hexatonic (no 3rd).
O what are you going to do when your father comes home?
O son, come tell to me.
I'll put my foot in yonders boat,
And sail 'cross the sea.
O when will you return, O when will you return?
O son, come tell to me.
When the moon and the sun sets in yonder hills,
And that will never be.
