Error description

Dirk, I was struggling with this song and how they were different as I just added a song called "Palms of Victory". This original song has 4 paragraphs of lyrics plus the chorus after each...I looked at Johnny Cash lyrics and listened to Uncle Dave Macon's song and they were word for word basically identical. What Carter added was a 5th paragraph of lyrics. That was his only change. I would recommend you state this and copy these lyrics. If you listened to the first few minutes of every song you would say they are all identical. This info. is needed on our site to allow the user to understand the difference. He didn't modify lyrics he just added a 5th paragraph of lyrics and the rest of the song was unchanged. The song I added didn't have these additional lyrics so I put it in the top bucket but if you don't put this info. on our site the next person who comes along won't know where it should go either. I had to listen to a bunch of songs to figure this out and I'd like to make it easier for the next person.


While gazing on that city, just o'er the narrow flood,

A band of holy angels came from the throne of God;

They bore him on their pinions safe o'er the dashing foam,

And joined him in his triumph: Deliverance had come!


Thx Mark.

I hope I understood it well, have a look at it.

Looks good to me except I would move "And credited the song to himself." because it's looks like it's in the lyrics.

You could take your top sentence:

AP Carter added a 5th paragraph to the "Palms of Victory" with these lyrics.


and just cut and paste this....


A.P. Carter added a 5th paragraph to "Palms of Victory" and registered the "new" song solely his name. Here are the additional lyrics:
