Looking for lyrics to "The Ballad of Bill Orr." Heard it on an album by The City Limits Bluegrass Band (Lynn Morris). Biscuit Records.

I've posted the lyrics to "Kansas Legend". I think this is the one you're looking for:A great cut from a great album, "Frummox" was a collaboration of Steven Fromholz and Dan McCrimmon.

Tiger:

Many thanks. That's the tune. I heard it sung by Lynn Morris in Montana when she was working wiht a bluegrass trio; "The City Limits Bluegrass Band." That group released it on a biscuit records album in mid 70's?

Thanks again.

John
