"The Raspel Pole"- sung by Mrs. M. E. Whisenhunt, Slick, Oklahoma, n.d. and her mother and father were born in
Arkansas and Tennessee, respectively (reported as learned from grandfather, who learned it in Aberdeenshire, Scotland).

Oh father, oh father, did you bring me money,
Did you bring me gold?
Did you come to see me hung on the raspel pole?"
