NOTES: From Kuntz: D Major. Standard. AABB. See also related tune "Robinson County." This ditty was sung to the 'A' part of the tune (collected by John Hartford from Roy Acuff):
City gal she wears ruffled drawers, country gal she wears plain;
My gal she wears no drawers at all, but the gets there just the same.
When I saw her ruffled drawers, her ruffled drawers so fine,
When I saw her ruffled drawers, I knew I'd make her mine.
