Subject: RE: Tune Req: 'I Want a Man' traditional (?) camp song
Didn't the Appalachian singer Horton Barker sing the following short fragment:
I feel like hell,
I feel like hell,
I feel like helping some poor soul,
To find a man,
To find a man,
To find a mansion in the sky.
I think that I read this in the notes to a Horton Barker LP (Folkways?)
