I suggest _El Tejano_, _Qeho's Trail_, _Brushy Bill Roberts_ and _The Lost Belle Mackeever_ on the following CD [http://tinyurl.com/y4n98j] by Jim Pipkin a.k.a. "Trooper" Gahar. Then there's _Old Molly Metcalf_; Old Molly Metcalfe Words & Music: Jake Thackray Old Molly Metcalfe counting sheep Yan tan tether mether pip she counted Up upon Swaledale steep and bleak Yan tan tether mether pip she said. Grow little sheep come hail come snow / Yan tan...she counted Fine warm wool for a gentleman's shoulderblades / Yan tan...she said. Over the heather when the weather is cold / Yan tan...she counted Stiff Molly Metcalfe goes bow-leggedly / Yan tan...she said. Grow little sheep, come wind come rain / Yan tan...she counted Fine warm wool for a lady's counterpane, / Yan tan...she said. On her back in the bracken with frozen bones / Yan tan...she counted Daft Molly Metcalfe singing alone / Yan tan...she said. Grow little sheep, come death come dark / Yan tan...she counted No such wool for Old Molly Metcalfe, / Yan tan...she said.
