Published by Paul Taylor (A0.1376464). The manuscript of this little parlor-song from 1894 currently lies in the National Museum of music history. It represents a snapshot of neighborhood living when children hollered down rain barrels, climbed apple trees and slid down cellar doors rather than staring at their iphones all day :)Â . In the later decades it became a dixieland standard as well as a staple of the barbershop quartet genre. In addition it was a popular tune of the time, and was mass-reproduced for amateur pianists in the early 20th century. In addition, this piano solo does contain one verse and one chorus of text written above the treble of the piano part.
