JOG ON (JOG ON THE FOOTPATH WAY). AKA and see "Hanskin," "Eighty-Eight." English, Country Dance Tune (6/4 or 6/8 time, with one bar in the part receiving an extra beat). G Major (Chappell, Kines): A Major (Sharp). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. The air was published in Playford's English Dancing Master (1650), The Antidote against Melancholy (1661, set to the tune of "Hanskin"), and many other 17th century song collections, attesting to its popularity at the time. It was retained in the Dancing Master through the 10th edition of 1698 [1], and appears under the titles "Jog On" and "Jog On My Honey."

Shakespeare, in his play The Winter's Tale (act IV, scene 3), has Autolycus make his exit with one stanza of the song.

Jog on, jog on, the footpath way
And merrily bent the stile-a;
Your merry heart goes all the day,
Your sad tires in a mile-a.
