Is that the same tune as this one? Played as a slow hornpipe? If so, I never knew it had any words.
Ira Ford, in Traditional Music of America, says that Miss. Sawyer was named after test run of a saw mill. At the picnic party that evening it was discovered that the sawyer was also a fiddler. He was asked to open the dance and this is the tune he played. It became known as Miss. Sawyer. No lyrics given and I have never heard any. I also don't think is bears even a passing resemblance to Downfall.
