everyone's favorite blues & country song they probably are enjoying a 'cover' but idk if that term really applies when no-one knows or listens to the original shrug-outta-hecks

even when it's known like you're not really gonna tell me the Kinks & Kokomo Arnold are doing the same song with 'Milkcow Blues', folks will change basically everything about a blues song and claim it's the same real theseus ass shit

I was gonna say Hannes Wader's live rendition of the International so I'll put that here since that follows the same principles
