And then there's "Down By the Willow Garden," a/k/a "Rose Connelly," which is obviously the same song originally, but develops in a much more American way. (That song's right on the surface now, because I just got Tim O'Brien's "The Crossing," which rates a listen if you're into either bluegrass or celtic music, and is a "don't miss" if you're into both.)

Our group does "Long Black Veil," but we always explain that although it's thought of as being a bluegrass song, it isn't really, because the chick survives.
