Mr. Grayson, a beautiful woman, and a condemned man named Tom Dooley. It's always the woman's fault, cheatin whores. Poor Tom is gonna die just cause he loved some woman. If you haven't guessed by now tonight's record is another 45 and its is the Kingston Trio's Tom Dooley and the b side is Ruby Red.
I have always liked the story of Tom Dooley. When i was in chorus in middle school we did a song that was really like ten songs one of which was Tom Dooley. It was called Hootenanny. I remember we all had a great time performing this song. It must have been in the seventh grade since Justin was there to sing the baritone parts of Tom Dooley. So that means it was Mr. Bottens since Mr. Shrock had taken a hiatus that part of the year.
Ruby Red is an alright song certainly a reason for it to be on the b side i suppose.
