'''ONE MORE RIVER TO CROSS.''' Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, West Virginia. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune was in the repertory of West Virginia fiddler and bagpiper Franklin George, West Virginia fiddler Wilson Douglas, and Indiana fiddler John Summers.  Mark Wilson (1981) says the tune bears a distant resemblance to a Negro spiritual of the same name. However, (as Joel Shimberg points out) the tune is a version of "[[Run Nigger Run]]" that was renamed by Frank George, who liked to play the tune in performance but who declined to credit the original title.
