Hi,

Thanks Sheye. At present I am listening to a real audio file sent to me by Old timer Gene, (Thanks again.)

I'll convert it into midi / ABC and post it here later.

Or, you could find the words and tune in the Digital Tradition database.

Hi,

I tried Dick, and didn't find anything. I'll have another go. But thanks, that saves me doing out the tune for someone else.

ALison- try a search for [don't stop here' with the square brackets to indicate that it's a phrase.

From: alison

Hi Dick,

I had tried L & N, L & N don't stop here, Curly headed baby, Hazard Holler...... but I eventually found it using "I was born"..... it was hit number 150.

I hope you don't mind but I'm going to post the tune anyway because the one with the lyrics is very difficult to follow. Hopefully it'll be of use to someone else.

Alison,

I've been doing the song for years. Michelle Shocked version on "Short, Sharp, Shocked" is the best version (besides my own, nudge nudge). It sounds great as a bluegrass song.

CLICK HERE TO PLAY. The link to the tune was messed up a few days ago, but I think it's working now. If not, the link I've posted in this note may do it. I'm working at a library computer, so I can't test or fix it.
