If there's anyone still left on this thread, check out: https://folkways-media.si.edu/liner_notes/arhoolie/ARH09032.pdf Chicken Pie, as performed by Jim Smoak & the Louisiana Honeydrippers I would say this is a really good dance tune. Per the liner notes (I have a CD of this recording): "Chicken Pie is a lively evocation of a wild party in the country: Some got drunk an' some got drownded, Some got choked on chicken pie. Jim Smoak learned the words from his grandfather, and Dewey Edwards learned the tune from his father."
