'''CONTENTED FARMER, THE'''. English, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody was first published in Charles and Samuel Thompson's Compleat Collection, vol. 3 (London, 1773). It was included by Northumbrian musician William Vickers in his manuscript collection, begun in 1770. Matt Seattle says this tune is "recognizably 'Happy Farmer' (c.f. Northumbrian Pipers' Tune Book, 1970), but with noticeable differences." There is an earlier, different tune, also called the "Contented Farmer" or "Contented Country Farmer" that appears in ballad operas and on song sheets and in some dance collections.
