Broonzy (not that he was the most reliable informant): "Some of the verses [of 'Key To The Highway'] he [Segar] was singing it in the South the same way I was singing it in the South. And practically all of blues is just a little change from the way that they was sung when I was a kid.... You take one song and make fifty out of it -- just change it a little bit.... In a way I'll say I wrote it and Charlie Segar he was in it too."
