{{TuneAnnotation
|f_annotation='''STAY AND TAKE YOUR PETTICOAT WITH YOU.''' English, Country Dance Tune (2/4 time). G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The title appears to be a play on the earlier tune name “[[Stay and take your breeches wi' ye (1)]]” which had been around at least since 1734 when it was included in David Young's '''Drummond Castle Manuscript, Part 2''' (1734, No. 71).

The melody, like many in Charles and Samuel Thompson’s 1757 collection, first appears in John Johnson’s '''Choice Collection of 200 Favourite Country Dances, vol. 7''' (London, 1756).
