ROBERTSON COUNTY. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Tennessee. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBBB. Does not seem to be the same as the similarly titled "Robinson County." It may have been an original tune of Paul Warmack and his Gully Jumpers, a popular late 1920’s Nashville string band, though it is related to "Throw the Old Cow Over the Fence." The group featured Tennessee fiddler Charlie Arrington, who accompanied Uncle Dave Macon in 1936 and 1937 in performances and on recordings. Robertson County is in Tennessee, just north of Nashville.
