She has lived in Britain for more than 60 years and was married to the singer-songwriter Ewan MacColl.\n \nEthnomusicologist John Lomax recorded that it was originally sung by an African-American woman called Dink as she washed her husband’s clothes in a tent camp of migratory levee-builders on the bank of the Brazos River, near Houston, Texas.\nhttps://peggyseeger.bandcamp.com/track/dinks-song","location":1,"location_name":"Default","play_type":"trackplay"}
