That album contains several misattributions, i.e. "Ship those niggers back", which is performed by Otis Cochran & the Three Bigots. "Segregation Wagon" is definitely performed by Colonel Sharecropper, and afaik "The Great Society" is as well.

However, going through all the songs again, I must admit that something occurred to me that might suggest you are right about "Cowboys and Niggers": although I find Trahan to have a very recognizable, somewhat high pitched voice, this voice is not heard on Kajun Ku Klux Klan, which is without any doubt performed by Trahan. So, apparently he has a wider range, or some oddity in how the recording are rendered account for the difference. But, the voice in Kajun KKK does not sound unsimilar to that in Cowboys and Niggers, meaning that might be a Johnny Rebel song after all.

So, it might be the case I stand corrected. Hats off to you!
