Don't know if this fits the forum. But...
As a big fan of ('70s artist) JJ Cale, I always liked the "Mama don't" song, or... his version of it. And as a kid I had an LP with a Washboard Sam recording of it, from the 30s. But never really heard the many versions that exist, although a dixieland jazz fake book I have has it as "New Orleans traditional, recorded by George Lewis, Punch Miller, etc...".
Until today that is...
Here's a list of some of the old versions of the song (I found on google):
