Fidlin' John Carson does a version of the 10,000 year old man called "When Abraham and Issac Rushed the Can". I have trouble making out the words, and I'm not sure what the title means (Dale???).

I have seen a quote from Jelly Roll Morton complaining about the blues singers in the South and saying he will have to "rush the can and go to Chicago".

Doc Watson does a nice version with finger picking accompanyment on the Guitar. He modestly claims to only be "Born about six thousand years ago." The lyrics are very similar to those given above.
