Thread Name: Origins: Darcy Farrow (alt spelling Farrell)
Subject: RE: LYR.REQ. Darcy Farrell
Hi, Kevin. The song is Darcy Farrow, and it's in the database. Search under Darcy. I heard songwriter Steve Gillette sing and explain it on two occasions, and I can't remember for sure if he said it was a true story. I don't think it is, but it fits the history of the area quite well - so there's a lot of truth in the story, even if it didn't happen quite that way.
