I'm still on a high after the open mic last night and started practicing for next month already. I played this song for the first time this morning so it is still rough, but I am happy enough with it to share with my friends here. All three of my songs will be in minor tuning next month and I will play this one last.

Heavily influenced by Jamey Johnson's version of this children's traditional, but I'm not sure I would call it a cover of his song.

No kidding!  The first time I heard it was the season 6 finale of Sons of Anarchy.  It fit the scene perfectly, like a lot of the songs on that show and I was totally hooked on it.

If you haven't heard Jamey Johnson sing this, I highly recommend it.
