B: Sam Bayard, "Hill Country Tunes" 1944 #75
S: Played by Irvin Yaugher Jr, Mt Independence, PA, Oct 19 1943. As played by his great-uncle.
N: This is not the melody which accompanies the well known and often recorded sea shanty called
N: "Hog eye," nor is it the playparty song tune with a similar name known farther south (see
N: Sharp-Karpeles, "English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians, II, No.250). A somewhat
N: different version, with the parts in reverse order, is in Bayard Coll., No.288, from Greene
N: County, where the title is simply "Hog Eye," and has an indecent meaning.
N:
N: In Fayette County, this tune has the following associated rhyme:
N:    I went down to Sally's house
N:    'Bout ten o'clock or later;
N:    All she had to give to me
N:    Was a hog-eye and a 'tater.
N: The rhyme accompanying the set known in Greene County is:
N:    As I was going down the street,
N:    A pretty little girl I chanced to meet;
N:    I stepped right up and kissed her sweet,
N:    And asked her for some hog-eye meat.
N: No other sets of the tune are known to the editor.
