Wikipedia says something kooky:
"The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" has been recorded numerous times, probably most notably by Laurel and Hardy, and was featured in their 1937 film Way Out West. This version was also released as a single in 1975 in the UK, where it reached number 2 in the charts. The song was also recorded by Vivian Stanshall, the English frontman of the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band.

Capcha is "jammies' if one could believe ones eyes.
I actually own a CD with that first one.
The title alone sounds like something the Handsome Family would sing.
Rather than watch your video, I'm going to listen to the imaginary Handsome Family version in my mind.
not enough death and dismemberment for a Handsome Family song.
Hey, y'gotta love a good Doo Dah band, and as Doo Dah bands go, Bonzo Dog takes Doo Dah to a whole 'nuther level...
