CAPTAIN MONEY'S MARCH. AKA and see "Give Me the Girl That's Ripe for Joy." A once-popular fife tune. The earliest known version was printed in London by David Rutherford in 1756. Samuel Bayard believes James Oswald may have been influenced by the tune, popular during the time, when he wrote "The Tulip," to which it bears a resemblance. See also "Balance a Straw."
