Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Little Musgrave and Lady Barn
The 2 versions I had of this were by Doc Watson, in which version it was the man's idea to seduce the wife, and by Shep Ginandes, in whose version (closer to what's in the Trad as Mattie Groves, the name used in both versions) it was very definitely the wife's idea to seduce Mattie. Which is closer to the "real" story?
