USA; Arkansas, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, Mississippi. D Major (most versions): G Major (John Brown). Standard or ADae tuning (fiddle). AB (Brody): AABB (Phillips/1989 {the 'B' part is 'crooked' in Phillip's version}): AA'BB (Phillips, 1994). A widely known frolic tune, appearing in many folk music collections and even old elementary school songbooks. The title appears in a list of traditional Ozark Mountain fiddle tunes compiled by musicologist/folklorist Vance Randolph, published in 1954, and was recorded for the Library of Congress in 1939 by Mississippi fiddler John A. Brown. A very popular Cajun version of the tune, probably borrowed from the American song, is "J'etais au Bal" (I Went to the Dance Last Night).  Verses set to the tune are many, including several "floaters":

The Big Sandy River, referred to in Thomas & Leeder's lyric, forms the border between Kentucky and West Virginia and flows into the Ohio River at Catlettsburg, Ky.  It was a flat-boat trade route before the advent of the railroads. See also similar stanzas printed by African-American collector Thomas Talley in '''Negro Folk Rhymes''' (1922) under the title "She Hugged Me and Kissed Me." A song derived from the well-known "Cindy", is a "Cindy" from the singing of Dan Tate (b. 1896), of Fancy Gap, Carroll County, Va.. It goes:
<blockquote>
''Railroad, a plank road,''<br>
''A river and canal;''<br>
''If it hadn't have been for Doctor Grey,''<br>
''There never would have been any hell.''<br>
<br>
Cho: <br>
''Get along home Cindy,''<br>
''Get along home I say;''<br>
''Get along home Cindy girl,''<br>
''For I am a-going away.''<br>
<br>
''A railroad, a plank road,''<br>
''A river and canoe;''<br>
''If it hadn't have been for old John Jones,''<br>
''They never would a-killed old Jude.''<br>
</blockquote>
Tate said that Jude was a slave of a Doctor Gray, who abused her when she became pregnant and would not tell who the father of her child was.
