Ditties:
1) The Erie Canal, sung to the tune of "A Life on the Ocean Wave", Henry Russell, 1838
2) A Peanut Sat on a Railroad Track, unknown origin
3) Down in Jungle Town, Theodore Morse and Edward Madden, 1908
Many traditional American ditties were simple melodies with funny lyrics reflecting everyday life. The first two selections are perfect examples inspired by canals and railroads. "Down in Jungle Town" is one of many animal kingdom songs of the ragtime era. The lyrics have been modified (e.g. "Harbour" for "Jungle") for this recording.
Mark would sing these songs to his children at bedtime. He was continuing a tradition started by his father.
Frank Wittmann (piano, vocals) and Andy Macpherson (percussion).
