There's a good version of this by Milt Okum and the Seafarer's Chorus, Elektra EKS 7182. More readily accessible on the compilation CD, Constant Sorrow, Gems From the Elektra Vaults. The lyrics are a subset of the ones posted by Frank Staplin, three posts up, 18 July 2011. The CD also has a fine recording of Whiskey-O, Johnny-O, by the same group. When I first saw this, I thought Milt Okum had to be a typo for Milt Okun, producer for Peter Paul and Mary, The Chad Mitchell Trio, John Denver and many others, but I'm now convinced Okun and Okum were/are two different people.
