Thread Name: Origins: Barbara Allen (different versions)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Barbara Allen' different versions
A lot of years ago I attended a play called Dark Side of the Moon. They played and sang a song called Barbara Allen and the Witchboy. The play (and the song) was about a boy who was a witch. He made a deal with a conjure man to make him into a human. The congure man said o.k. if Barbara Allen will be faithfull to you for 1 year I'll remove your eagle (that followed the boy) and you'll be human. Well Barbara made it for 364 days before she was unfaithful so the witch boy remained a witch. I'll look for the lyrics. Zorro..
