La Salle Music Publishers, Inc. The WMA Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame credit Billy Hill with the song, as do most covers (Doc Watson, etc.).
It is best known through the recording by Jimmie Rodgers, although Doc Watson did a better job (Probably Jimmie Rodgers should be credited with the yodel).
In the Jimmie Rodgers discography: BS73325-2, April 7, 1933, credited to Jimmie Rodgers, George Brown and Billy Hill.

This thread should be combined with thread 20322: Prairie Lullaby
