Played on a DGBE tuned antique Ruy Lopez cedar cigar box guitar and an Iowa saxophone.
My theory is that this was a black folk's song (Alberta Alberta) that was 'whited up' for a white folks song.
Songs and music are often appropriated/borrowed/stolen from genre to genre and from usage to usage.

Ha, Nancy! Thanks, Danny. We like it here.
awesome job Unc how's the new residence doin
Cedar, especially old and dry, is the sweetest wood in so many ways.
Thanks, Richard. Iowa sex appeals? Glad you noticed... Oh. Did you mean Iowa Saxophone? Ha. Well, one leads to the other.
What they say about cedar is true, great sound and tones from your CBG Uncle! I think you played the perfect fence between the two versions, Alberta and Corina, with style and a bit of Iowa sex appeals. Loved it!
'nuther git?
Rambling Dan. We can have both a Ramblin' Dave and a Rambin' Dan.... It doe not cost anything more.
...throw you in the mix...........spellcheck. can iI turn it off?
Thanks John. Does the healing power work if I pour it on my scalp, let it run down to my face, and into my mouth? Pretty woman just wanted some, didn't help. History does repeat itself.
It's one of those things that if you're fired up about something your working on, you kinda forget the top of the cement doorway and smack your head on an up-step. Stops me dead in my tracks. Can't do anything but utter improper words. Sometimes it stops me for the day.
All tangental, but thank you for the advice. I love the song, the sax, the guitar, the playing, and I'll have to show you in the mix as well. I have a flat sax, cause it's a photo printed on a piece of flat paper.
Corina, Corina............Nice hat, nice shadow, nice demeanor.............jeez, I really ramble. Gotta get back to my loose screw.
