Liza Jane

Damn me, I had the post all typed up and hit the little red x and lost it. The gist of it was: there is this story about a girl named, Liza Jane. I knew about the Huey Smith version, then discovered there was also a Bob Wills version, then discovered there must be 100s of versions, a couple of which I had lying around. So here they are.
