Perhaps not, but there is an annotated Grateful Dead website:

Contemplator archive of trad songs  (note: these will play a midi file):

And also the digital tradition at mudcat cafe  ( http://www.mudcat.org/ )

&c, &c.

Anyway, "Fenario", in song lyrics, long predates the Grateful Dead,
Simon & Garfunkle, Bob Dylan, &c
