peregrina | Lyr Req: Hobart Smith's Cuckoo - one early verse (18) | RE: Lyr Req: Hobart Smith's Cuckoo - one early verse | 02 Feb 14 |
Yes, it seems to have elements of Stewball/Skewball and the name Kimball could be from there. Unless it's Kiper from some versions of Molly and Tenbrooks.I think this song tends to be a fairly unstructured grouping, often with floating verses found elsewhere, and in the Appalachians, almost no plot. It really sounds as if here Hobart was doing something different with it. |
