The melody was from an old fiddle tune that I often play called the Eighth of January. Even as an instrumental, it brings a smile to people’s faces as they recall the lyrics..
A lot of fun, at the expense of our (now)good friends, the Brits.

It is my understanding that the words to that song were written by a history teacher who was trying to help his students learn history.
