NANCY FAT. American, Jig. USA, southwestern Pa. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Bayard (1981) calls this seemingly a composite tune, meaning that it employs two strains from different tune families. He concludes that it was popular in North America, as a very similar tune, a part of a Lancers set, was recorded by Bayard (1981, Appendix No. 41, p. 590) from a fiddler from Prince Edward Island, Canada. While the musicologist was not able to trace the second strain (which he thought sounded modern), the first strain is derived from the once-popular common-time "Because He was a Bonny Lad."
