Thank you, my friend. I loved learning the background on this tune. As we noted in the article, for decades we just assumed it originated with Charlie Poole. And these days, if you want to learn the original lyrics, you probably still have to go back to his version, because the jazz guys pretty much all do it as an instrumental, I guess.
