Anthology Track 5 label.jpg

Record label does not assign authorship. Nor does either Anthology booklet, or www.78discography.com.


The Roud Folksong Index classifies this song as a version of Child 278 or Roud 160.


California State University, Fresno has a webpage on this Child ballad, dating it to at least the mid-19th century, if not earlier. [1]


It is reasonable to treat this composition as public domain.
