Lyrics (De Ole Grey Goose) from Elias Howe's Ethiopian Glee Book (1849); banjo arrangement (The Old Gander) from Phil Rice's Banjo Instructor (1858).

Again, Paul, I'll bring enough cash to purchase your CD and Mark's CD at Antietam.
It's always great to hear these things with accompaniment. Much more accurate reflections of how they were originally done. Good job!
Great job, Paul. I was going to also say what Mark said a few minutes ago.
Thanks. You'll notice the melody here (the Rice version) is a little different than the melody in Howe's Glee Book, but the lyrics fit.
How did I miss this?
It's fabulous.
Sorry Paul. I was merely egging him on, along with Mark. As far as I know, Paul does not YET have a CD.
When he does, I'll purchase one!
Ooops! I mean sorry Richard, for giving you an erroneous impression.
Marvelous
here's a link to the Howe book for those who may be interested:
