Subject: Lyr Req: Identify Song in Daniel Boone TV Series
Can anyone identify the song being sung at 4:28? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4fO9jv7fk0&list=PLofKYC6TXgl1xzFZA9y3ouPvLaeBPp3J-&index=24 The lyrics begin,

"There's a lonely gal awaitin' for a man who never comes
He lies dead upon the Mississippi shore
While the wildcat is wailin' in the deep dark woods
And the copperhead is hissin' near her door."

Google was no help. Thanks.
