I learned this from Tim Green, who just might sing folk songs better than anybody. He learned it from the "Mud Acres" album, which featured Happy & Artie Traum, Maria Muldaur and John Sebastian, among others. They learned it from Leadbelly. The reference to Jack Johnson doing the "Eagle Rock" attests to its antiquity. I had forgotten all about this song until this tape surfaced. That's the way of it sometimes, as one of the hands said to Captain Smith on that long-ago night.
