BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN "high hopes" - CRAZY-HORSE - 26-01-2014
Springsteen did one a while ago called "the seeger sessions", was all old folky songs recorded live. i have that album,stuff like "froggy went a courtin" was on it.
come to think of it didnt Dylan do a covers album a few years ago with that 'froggy' song on it?

^^
at least Elvis was just having fun with it
Dylan did it as a serious song
and it's hard to sound serious with lyrics like that
