Subject: RE: Child Ballads: US Versions
Hi,

I've started on Earl Brand and am focusing on US versions here: http://bluegrassmessengers.com/us-and-canadian-versions-child-7-earl-brand.aspx

Does anyone know where the Earl Brand version in the DT is from?

It's attributed to Lizzie Gibson (Virginia) 1918 but it's not the lyrics from EFFSA. It's some compilation- modern version?
