2. 吴公子于2016年1月22日，于达拉斯的艾伦市公立图书馆(Allen Public Library)的表演厅观赏蓝草音乐宴饗(Bluegrass Festival)，此宴饗由先后两个蓝草乐团演出，第一个演出的蓝草乐团是1946年即开始演出的“库克兄弟”(Cooke Brothers)，弹唱15首蓝草歌曲及1首四部合声的圣歌安可曲，乐团中原有的三位老团员为弹立式贝司(upright bass)的兰德尔•代斯(Randall Dyess)、弹曼陀林(mandolin)的比利•乔•库克(Billy Joe Cooke)、及弹原声吉他(acoustic guitar)的温德尔•库克(Wendell Cooke)，乐团中新加入的两位团员为弹班卓琴(banjo)的拉里•库克(Larry Cooke)、及拉小提琴(fiddle)的雷吉•库克(Reggie Cooke)。比利及温德尔兄弟俩为至今仍在演出的年纪最大的蓝草歌手，兰德尔是他们的姪子。
3. 库克兄弟当晚的演出，有一首由兰德尔•代斯演唱的歌曲《送玛莉回家》(Bringing Mary Home)叙述一个鬼故事，该首歌曲由乡村绅士(Country Gentlemen)乐团于1964年发行，由约翰•达菲(John Duffy)、曹格•曼克(Chaw Mank)、及乔•金斯顿(Joe Kingston)作词作曲，1月22日当晚的演出由兰德尔•代斯演唱。英文歌词及吴公子的中译如下：
I was driving down a lonely road one dark and stormy night,
一个漆黑的暴风雨之夜，我驾车于一条孤寂的路上，
When a little girl by the roadside showed up in my headlights,
当路边一个小女孩在我的车头灯出现，
I stopped and she got in back and in a shaky tone,
我停了下来，她坐进车的后座用颤抖的语气，
She said: My name is Mary, please won't you take me home?
她说：“我的名字叫玛丽，请你送我回家好吗？”
She must have been so frightened all alone there in the night,
夜里独自在那儿，她一定吓坏了，
There was something strange about her, for her face was deathly white,
有些奇怪的是，她的脸色死般惨白，
She sat so pale and quiet in the back seat all alone,
惨白的她安静地独坐在后座，
I'll never will forget that night I took Mary home.
我将永远不会忘记我送玛莉回家的那个夜晚。
I pulled into the driveway where she told me to go,
把车停在她要我停的车道，
Got out to help her from the car and opened up the door,
从车上下来帮她打开了车门，
But I just could not believe my eyes 'cause the back seat was bare,
但我简直不敢相信自己的眼睛，后座竟是空的，
I looked all around the car but Mary wasn't there.
我找遍车的四周，而玛丽不在那儿。
A light shone from the porch, someone opened up the door,
门廊的灯亮了，有人打开了大门，
I asked about the little girl that I was looking for,
我问起我在找的小女孩，
The lady gently smiled and brushed a tear away,
一位女士温柔地笑了，拭去泪水，
She said: It sure was nice of you to go out of your way.
她说：“让您受累了。
But thirteen years ago today a wreck just down the road,
十三年前的今天哪，就在这条路上有场车祸，
Our darling Mary lost her life and we miss her so,
我们心爱的玛丽丧生了，多么想念她啊，
Thank you for your trouble and the kindness you have shown,
偏劳您了，承您的情，
You're the thirteenth one who's been here bringing Mary home.
您是第十三位送玛莉回家的人。”
