Oh, boo hoo over that stranger needing a barn to sleep in.  Thanks,  Al, 
love it.   
 
Getting this piece of education reminds me of an event of couple of weeks  
ago.  My kids banjo band had just finished their first sight read of  
"Sentimental Journey".  The ten year old intellectual in the band spoke  right up, 
"Where did this tune come from?  I never heard of it."  In  answering him, 
I did mention that there were probably 10,000 songs that  neither he nor I 
had heard of.
 
As I have mentioned already, Sentimental Journey was an instant  hit with 
the 9 - 13 year olds.  They like simple chromatics and  syncopation.  When 
they have to start on the eighth note after "one",  I tell them things like, 
they have to hiccup and then play.

Ginny, that same tune was  used for a  lot of songs back in the early 
part of the 20th  century.  Here's another   one:
