As far as the where the tune came from... 

It is a much covered standard in Bluegrass.   A classic version is Flatt and Scruggs.  I believe there is another version on the Bonnie and Clyde movie soundtrack.

Out take blooper from this one. Note the chair change side to side lol.   Old Gypsy Jazz guitar behind me was a casualty along with the chair.  Gonna need some repair and will show battle scars.

Thanks guys! @Uncle John  They are some uke tuners seems like I may have salvaged them from a plastic Goodwill find.  The strings are super cheap 4/4 fiddle strings.  I bought a 4 pack for $12 from the evil bay. Cecilio?

?

Steve, it looks like you have geared tuners on the fiddle.  What strings are you using?

New song to me too.  Seems right for the season. Very nice.  Thank you, guys.

Nicely played and sung. I'm not familiar with this tune but I liked it.
