Jerry, Jersey City is a version of "The Butcher Boy" or "Died For Love" that happens to be set in Jersey City instead of Oxford City, etc. It's a nice Americanized version: "There is a tavern in the town, where my love goes and hangs around..."

The Boston Burglar is also considered a trad song (Laws L16B to be precise!)

But If I was a carpenter isn't.

mollycat, I don't know the Duncan McFarlane band. Are they generally worth looking into?
