BUFFALO NICKEL [1]. AKA and see "Chinky Pin," "Crooked Stovepipe (2)," "Darling Child, Farmer Had a Dog (The)", "Fourth of July," "Grey-Eyed Cat," "Hair in the Butter," "I'm My Momma's Darling," "I'm My Momma's Darling Child," "Lead Out," "Midnight Serenade (1)," "My Love is but a Lassie Yet (1)," "My Love She's But a Lassie Yet," "Richmond Blues," "Sweet Sixteen," "Too Young to Marry (1)," "Ten Nights in a Bar Room," "Tripping on the Mountain," "Yellow Eyed Cat." American, Reel (cut time). USA, Arkansas. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "Buffalo Nickel"[1] is yet another of a large number of names for the tune better-known under some of the alternate titles, but all derived from a common ancestor, the Scottish melody "My Love is but a Lassie Yet (1)" AKA "Miss Farquharson's Reel."
There may be some cross-over in titles, as there is another Ozarks tune called "Buffalo Nickle (2)", also called "New Five Cents (1)" from the ditty sung to it (which also scans to "Buffalo Nickel (1):
I wisht I had a new five cents, wisht I had a dime,
I wisht I had a new five cents, to give that gal of mine.
This would seen to date the title and couplet to 1913, when the Buffalo_nickel came into circulation in the United States (the coin was discontinued in 1938 as its details were subject to too much wear).
- ↑ 'Nickel' is the preferred way of spelling both the coin and the metal, although some dictionaries also allow 'nickle'.
