Notes: There are many fun versions of this tune. There's a recording of
Henry Reed over at slippery-hill.com (same as what's notated in the
Milliner Koken Collection), and another of Frank[lin] George available
through the Berea Digital Archives website. However, something about
about Rayna Gellert's version drew me in. I like the bounce, and surprisingly,
the repetition of it. Where H.Reed played two short A parts followed by two
short B's, in this version the A and B parts are doubled. Also, any extra
beat(s) H.Reed played have been left out, making this a square tune.

Notes: ABC notation and audio (MIDI) derived from Jeff Titon's transcription,
with one alteration. High-E doublestops in measures 5-7 and 14-16 were
replaced with Low-E doublestops. Also, chord guesses have been added.
