Subject: RE: Lyr. Req. Duncan And Brady
"Duncan and Brady" is in John A. Lomax and Alan Lomax's, Our Singing Country (1941; Dover, 200, pp. 333-35). It's similar to DUNCAN AND BRADY (2) in the DT. The Lomaxes say in the note, "It seems to be a close relative of 'Bad Man Ballad' in American Ballads and Folksongs." That version of "Bad Man Ballad" has been posted HERE.
