another note to MaryYour response stimulated my memory of Woody's version.
I recall two separate verses
Tell me will that slipnot slip, no it will not (2x)
It'll slip round your neck but it wont slip back again
That slipknot lord, that slipknotHave you ever lost a brother to that slipknot (2x)
my brother was a slave lord he tried to escape
they left him there to rot on that slipknot.All other verses are as I recall
thanks again
