Grateful Dead

Played by the Grateful Dead from 1970 right through to the 1990s. Jerry Garcia apparently learnt it from Delaney Bramlett during the "Festival Express" train ride across Canada in 1970.

When the song was being developed in the early 1970s, Jerry Garcia sang a number of additional verses. This from 6 November 1970:

My mother told me, "Son don't go down there" Momma told "Don't go way down there" Momma told "Don't go way down there, down there" Don't wanna be treated this a way

And this from 29 April 1971 (thanks to Brad Dilli for pointing it out):

I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow Going where those chilly winds don't blow Don't want to be treated this way
