Rabbit Where's Your Mammy - Fiddle Tune a Day - Day 56

Описание: Signup for Vi Wickam's Fiddle Tune a Day: http://www.vithefiddler.com

This is just a cool old-time tune. Nothing too complicated, but it has a great melody. According to Fiddler's Companion, there are three tunes by this name, that are related but not the same. I play it as a two part tune in D - AABB, and it's not the same tune as Walk Along John. If any of you know more about this tune than I, feel free to share what you know as a comment.
