Back to Indian Squaw (2)
INDIAN SQUAW [2]. Old-Time, Breakdown. G Major. GDad tuning (fiddle). AB. Some similarities to Alva Greene's version, although Hiram Stamper's [1] (1883-1992) apparently was derived from a song. Stamper whistled to the 'B' part of the tune, and sang to the 'A' part:
Way down yonder on the Arkansas,
Two old Indians and one old squaw,
Sitting on the banks of the Arkansas.
Jeff Titon (2001) finds nearly the same lyric in a song called "Bank of the Arkansas (The)" printed in Lomax and Lomax's Our Singing Country (1941, pp. 68-69), although Titon says tune that appears with that song is the same as that of Clyde Davenport's "Cornstalk Fiddle and a Shoestring Bow."
See also Missouri fiddler Bill Graves' "One Old Indian Two Old Squaws."
Source for notated version: Hiram Stamper (Hindman, Knott County, Ky., 1986) [Titon].

Recorded sources: Titon (Old-Time Kentucky Fiddle Tunes), 2001; No. 69C, p. 99.
