Tom,
Good call. The song was done by the Everly Brothers (who were raised near central city Kentucky and one of which now owns the former Lake Malone Lodge near there. Their mother was originally from the community my Mom came from. A little place called Anna).
The song was actually written by a Western Kentucky University Professor for whom their theater was named: Russell Miller.
More info than you wanted, I'm sure.
Meanwhile, come on down here to the bluegrass state and I'll show you around. We can visit "Possum Trot" "Monkey's Elbow" "Monkey's Eyebrow" and the ever-popular "Big Bone
Lick."
