Thread Name: Origins: Duncan and Brady
Subject: RE: Duncan and Brady
In relation to my transcription of the Wilmer Watts recording in this thread, the New Roanoke Jug Band have a version of it on 'Play it for a long time' Copper Creek CCCD-2003. Although their version has many minor departures from the Watts text, it does clarify the 2 bits that I could not decipher and placed in square brackets.

Stanza 3, line 3:

Says, 'Now, Brady, you're resisting arrest'


Stanza 5, line 2:

'Horses and hacks all formed a line'
