Subject: RE: Origins: Some Dark Holler
Isn't it a 'floater' verse that pops up in lots of songs?

I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun refuse to shine
Than to see you be another man's darlin'
And to know that you'll never be mine.

Come all ye fair and tender ladies, The cuckoo, what else?
