Which, of course, Nic Jones stole from somebody else - but Nic Jones didn't make any money on it...
nic jones did not sreal anything from anybody else, do you understand or are you an intellectual pygmy?
No, Dick. It is a traditional song, but people often joke about "stealing" songs that are hundreds of years old. I guess you don't understand American humor, but it's OK, really. I was just being goofy and having fun. I did not mean to offend Nic Jones, or you, or Bob Dylan, or anybody. I was just having fun. Sorry you misunderstood me. I really do like the Nic Jones arrangement of this traditional song. And I really see no reason to fight about it.
