UP THE RIVER. AKA and see “Rolling off a Log (1).” American, Jig. USA, Maine. G Major (‘A’ part) & D Major (‘B’ part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Perhaps the title was miss-remembered by Ms. Lindsay, for the melody is “Rolling off a Log,” found in Ryan’s Mammoth Collection (1883), albeit in a different key.

Source for notated version: Creighton Lindsay (Portland, Oregon), who told Susan Songer (Portland Collection) she learned the tune while living in Maine [Songer].

Printed sources: Songer (Portland Collection), 1997; p. 205.
