JENNY IN THE COTTON PATCH. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA; Tennessee, Ky. A Mixolydian. AEae or GDgd tunings (fiddle). AABB'. A 'jenny' is a mule. An archaic-style fiddle tune learned by Monticello, Ky., fiddler Clyde Davenport from his father, Will Davenport, who himself had it from one Will Phipps. Phipps was an old timer (born in 1812) from Rock Creek, Tennessee, who was supposed to have been buried with his fiddle in his coffin. Titon (2001) finds the tune in the "Granny Will Your Dog Bite? (1)"/"Betty Martin" tune family. See also the closely related Kentucky tune "Huldy in the Sinkhole."

Source for notated version: Clyde Davenport (Monticello, Wayne County, Ky. 1990) [Titon].
