DESCRIPTION:
Dan Boner does a wonderful delivery on this old Bill Monroe ballad from 1952. This was a song requested from the audience. Some folks find the story and images presented rather disturbing. Proceed with caution. This is the story of a grieving father and the "Little Girl and the Dreadful Snake".

The ETSU Bluegrass Pride Band is composed of leading students and faculty of the school's Bluegrass, Old Time, and Country Music Program in the Department of Appalachian Studies. Performing are Raymond McLain (fiddle), Dan Boner (guitar), Tara Sansom (fiddle), Leah Needham (dobro), Haley Stiltner (banjo), Danny Stewart (bass), and Colby Laney (mandolin).
