I have it on a re-recording on a Document Records CD. Its an Amerikan Old-time tune from the 20th. Its John Dilleshaw talking some kind of lyrics to music. He never sing, always talk. It goes: "Sure a lots folks down here to night. Where do all these people come from? Never seen so many good-looking gals in my life." ... and so on. I think it's a nice tune and would like to have all that lyrics, but I can't hear all the words. Maybe I will try again on Mudcat in a few days. -Olle- |
