Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Murder Bull (from Wellman and Coltman)
The Silver John version quoted above has all but one of the verses I had from Sandy Paton. Memory fails, but I think the missing verse was the incomplete one Sandy asked me to reconstruct as best I could. It comes after "They drove him out to roam the hills ... The maverick Murder Bull." Here it is:

They'd tell a tale of meeting him
Up on some bald hillside,
A ghost white bull in pale moonlight
With MURDER on his hide.
