'''BETTY PRINGLE'S PIG [1]'''. Scottish, Reel. F Major (Cole, Ryan): D Major (Miller). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. John Hartford says the first strain is similar to "[[Money Musk]]" and but the whole tune is the same as Ryan's "[[North End Reel]]." Ryan's/Cole's attributes the tune to the Scottish fiddler-composer Niel Gow, although there is no evidence to support this assertion. A rhyme called "Betty Pringle's Pig" appears in Willis P. Hazard's '''Mother Goose Melodies''' and goes:
<br>
<br>
''Did you not hear of Betty Pringle's pig?''<br>
''It was not very little nor yet very big;''<br>
''The pig sat down upon a dung-hill,''<br>
''And there poor piggy he made his will.''
<br>
<br>
''Betty Pringle came to see this pretty pig,''<br>
''That was not very little nor yet very big;''<br>
''The little piggy it lay down and died,''<br>
''And Betty Pringle sat down and cried.''
<br>
<br>
''Then Johnny Pringle buried this very pretty pig,''<br>
''That was not very little nor yet very big;''<br>
''So here's and end of the song of all three,''<br>
''Johnny Pringle, Betty Pringe, and little Piggy.''
<br>
<br>
''Printed Sources'': Cole ('''1000 Fiddle Tunes'''), 1940; p. 33. Miller ('''Fiddler's Throne'''), 2004; No. 120, p. 81. '''Ryan's Mammoth Collection''', 1883; pp. 59 & 76.
