Doc Watson - Tennessee Stud

I suppose the first time I heard this Jimmy Driftwood tune was when Doc sang it on "Will the Circle Be Unbroken"', Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's epic album of the early 70's. To me, that is the definitive version.

Here he is live.

This song always made us smile. Thanks for the memories

Although that second verse wasn’t one I’d heard before.
