That the song originated from Protestant taboos on dancing is highly unlikely. Protestant frowns on dancing, card playing etc, was part of the holiness fundamental movement of the 1940's and 50's. This song far predates those years. The many variations of the song makes the discovery of it's origin difficult and therefore may never be truly known. It is probably not of American origin. |
