My 3rd great grandfather, John "Bull" Mon-go-sia, was the last of the Miami Indian war chiefs and later became a great fiddler. This was one of his favorites to play.

That's amazing! Do you have any photographs or recordings of him?

@@OldTimeTikiParlour no recordings because he was born in the early 1800's and died before recordings were made everywhere. Our local museum though has photographs of him with his fiddle.

I discovered him about 5 years ago and he quickly became my favorite old-time fiddler. My grandfather agreed.

Oh my yes: so pure... "If the ocean was whiskey and i was duck... swim to the bottom and never come up"... the yearnings of those living a hardscrabble life. Tommy's a jewel. Thanks for sharing!

@@claytonlewis8027 Did you stick with playing? I've been at it for about six months now. Today my fiddle teacher closed his eye, opened my copy of Fiddlers Fakebook, and randomly pointed to this gem. I'm gonna learn it and all of the lyrics this week. He's gonna shit when I start singing next week.

Wow. I feel like time travel does exist. I’ve been wanting to SEE Tommy play the whole tune. Now I can. I like to see he plays that sustained note on both an up bow and a down bow, same as I do.
