The 'recalcitrant fiddle' theme belongs to the "Twa Sisters" family of ballads collected in America and England, and can be referred to in most of the ballad collections.
And a damn good fiddler was he.
But all the tune that he could play
Was Tippytoe Ray, oh, Rippytoe Ray,
Oh, Rippytoe Ray, oh, ree-e-e.
Oh, Rippytoe Ray.
The title appears in a list of traditional Ozarks Mountains fiddle tunes compiled by musicologist/folklorist Vance Randolph, published in 1954, as "Rippytoe Ray."
