HOG HOUSE RAG. Old-Time, Country Rag. USA, Mo. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Source Vesta Johnson learned the tune from her uncle Clarence Wilson (Chula, Missouri), and it seems unique to the family (although Mark Wilson posits a possible link with "Jeff City"). See also the related "Jake Gillie."
