The song was recorded by Leadbelly and his version has been covered by Nirvana and others.
According to Wiki: "Ain't It a Shame" (Roud 11659) or "Ain't It a Shame to Go Fishin'" or "Keep You Hands Off Her" is an American folk song. It has been recorded by Lead Belly and Nirvana, among others. Also the name of a song by The B-52s on the Bouncing Off the Satellites LP (1986). Covered by Sinead O'Connor in 2003 on She Who Dwells.
I thought "Keep You Hands Off Her" was a different song.
