I can't help but re-write old songs that I love, it's part of what makes folk music so perfect.  Matt Despain plays banjo and Jenny Beams plays mandolin and make perfect harmonies.  
"Over fences, cricks and hollers
Moon's a shiny silver dollar
Find her restin' on her pillow
Comb my hair and tap her window
Hey, hey, hey black-eyed Suzie Jane"

Black Eyed Suzie

tambourine : dylan cover

by the banks of the river I could love you forever 
and i'd raise 
you a happy home
but if you turn your love from me you will turn to a lonely winding grave
the river roan

River Roan

we were borne in a surge of flame
borne to know and name
gathering the light into foreign groves
to bear and lift the flame to worlds unknown

every element reel and resonate
seeded with glory
what you've borne over ages bent and stained
is trembling with glory

Borne - the big bang

the only movement in this world i've seen is 
salt river, salt river free and brave
she throws her dirty water to tease and tempt me
salt river, salt river lure me away

the only movement that i can see is
salt river, salt river free and brave
she swings her dirty water smiling past me
salt river, salt river carry me away
