Bill CAmeron	Lyr ADD: Damyankee Lad (Jimmie Driftwood) (26)	RE: Damn Yankee	24 Nov 98
I've got a recording of Sam Hinton singing this--its credited to Jimmie Driftwood and the lyrics are as Gene presented them above except the fourth verse is "I stopped in Montgomery and got into a plight"...etc. The recording is a great treasure--a four album set called "American Folk Singers and Balladeers" (even though it has a whole side of Ian and Sylvia" part of The Classics Record Library on Vanguard--from 1964 and much of it is live performances from the legendary 64 Newport Folk Festival. Of course it has a complete lyrics book... (I acquired it from my Yankee inlaws by some rather unsubtle ravings when I saw this mint-condition box set hanging around their house.)
