Thread Name: Eloise?
Subject: RE: Eloise?
At the risk of being a lone dissenting voice, when I heard Leadbelly sing it, I didn't hear "Eloise"--it sounded much more like "Here we (go linin' track)". Eloise didn't appear in any of the verses; Evalina did.

Huddie was never much on enunciation, anyway.
