Hey, Betty Martin
The 3rd Grade at the Chicago Waldorf School is learning this tune.
I learned this tune when I was teaching classes at MacPhail Center for Music. I found a swing version on iTunes as well as some kid oriented recordings and a one from an album called “Ballads of the War of 1812.” Interesting. I may have to do more research on this tune, but the main point for us right now, is to practice using the first finger on the D string, alternating with no fingers on the D string. See the music below.
