GUEST,Bill Hicks	Lyr Req: songs by The Red Clay Ramblers (28)	RE: Lyr Req: Red Clay Ramblers Lyrics	27 May 03
The way Maggie Hammons sang it, the last verse goes: The old blue sow sprang up to her feet for to run, We fired and she fell from Bob Porter's old gun... Now the cowhide will crack and the waters will roar, And your back it will ache till it's perfectly sore. A "black-listed" boar is a male pig with black sides. The language is fairly archaic. The song is a variant of "Bangum and the Boar," a Childe Ballad. So I've been told anyway, by the "folk-lordylordy."
