Thank you so much.
When we were little kids, our dad first played us Plurred.
When we were little kids, our dad first played us Ram Jam's version of this song.
And it wasn't until just a couple years ago that we went digging back into the past
and found that it was originally done by Lead Belly.
[F#] And we found his [F#] version to be incredibly [D] exciting.
So we wanted to do it ourselves.
This is called Black Betty.
