You probably remember this tune from when you were a kid, and this song has a way to take us back to the good 'ol days. I’ve built this break to cater to players of ALL levels, and I know you’re gonna love it! Don’t play it too much, though, unless you plan on taking a nap this afternoon!

Hi Ben, yes I remember it well and I was a kid a long time ago. I am working hard on this and trying not to swing it. My goal in learning this song well is so I can bring it up in a circle jam at my local State fiddle chapter weekly jams. You have given some great varying levels for banjo and guitar along with great banjo backup tabs for this. I’m working hard and will shine soon. A really good musician at our circle jam told me he is good at the songs because he has played them " thousands of times, no, not thousands but hundreds of thousands of times"
