[edit] Trivia/Info
- Originally from the 1955 Robert Mitchum film "The Night of the Hunter." Coincidentally, They Might Be Giants used an image of the character Pearl from that film inside their Why Does The Sun Shine? EP. They also used the photo as a stage prop on their John Henry tour and on a t-shirt from the same era.
- "Sister Puff takes it outside. We first heard this song in the film "Night Of The Hunter." If it has ever appeared on disc before is an open question, but its haunting beauty made it an irresistible cover."
- Definitely not to be confused with the Offspring hit Pretty Fly (For A White Guy).
