    How about “Ain’t No Bugs On Me”? If I remember right Dawg did the tune, along with Jerry Garcia.

    Frankdolin, the Red Peter tune is not particularly clever in my opinion, just crass.
    Just sayin’ family friendly forum and all.

    I saw Bruce do that tune maybe half a dozen times, every time it would raise the hair on the back of my neck! I miss his stage presence and his after the show “approachability”. He made a kid of 17 feel as much a part of the group as if I’d been playing for thirty years! I really thought his old Guild F-50 was one fabulous guitar too!

    This is a favorite, and would adjust nicely to a bluegrass treatment.

    Thanks Hobotom!
    “Once I had a yeller Dog, his name was Towser Jenkins.
    The butcher cut his tail off with a cleaver.
    Towser had his mark on every dog in town,
    And once he’d had his bite, he’d never leave her.”
    Great song!
