Sandy Paton	Origin: Rough and tough and hard to bluff (44)	RE: Rough and tough and hard to bluff	03 Mar 00
Well, Joe, I can't really help you concerning the "John Jacob Schmidt" recitations, but Grant Rogers, "Songmaker of the Catskills," included the "I'm rough, I'm tough, and I'm hard to bluff" phrase in a song he made up titled "Bulls-Eye Bill." It's on his Folk-Legacy album, now available only as a custom cassette: C-27. You've heard Grant singing "Granny's Old Arm Chair" on the new Ballads and Songs of Tradition CD. Pretty good for an old construction and quarry-worker, eh? Sandy
