SAL WENT DOWN TO THE CIDER MILL. AKA - "Sal's Gone Down to the Cider Mill." Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, north Georgia. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The ditty sung to the melody has to do with alcoholic beverages.

Sal went down to the cider mill,
The one that's up on the top of the hill.

Sal went down to the mill one day,
Drank each drink till she couldn't get away.

I asked that gal to marry me,
She said no just as quick as you please.

Sal went down to the cider mill,
Drank each drink till she got her fill.

Sal went down to the cider mill,
Drank each drink and she couldn't sit still.

Sal and the boys went huckleberry pickin',
They all fell down and Sal got a lickin'. .....[Kuntz]
