String orchestra arrangement of a song written in the 1800's and popularized by the Carter Family, who recorded their own version in the late 1920's.  In the first section, the second violins and violas can play with instruments on their knee, guitar style. The last part is to be played non-vibrato, with an open sound, like a shape-note hymn. Can be played by intermediate players. Folk-style liberties can be taken with the solo parts. Score and parts included. Duration: 4:30. www.tomswafford.com ASCAP .
