It was collected by Marion Thede from W.S. Collins of Pottawatomie County in Oklahoma. Collins came from a musical Oklahoma family whose more modern representative was th fiddler Earl Collins. W.S. Collins sang these words to the tune:

Sixteen miles away form home
Chickens a-crowin' for day,
Sitting and a-talkin' to my pretty little girl,
I'd better be gettin' away.

Can you change a nickel?
Can you change a dime?
Can you change a pretty little girl
With her hair all down behind.

I can change a nickel,
I can change a dime,
I can change a pretty little girl
With her hair all down behind.

The banjo tablature is by John Letscher.
It was printed in Thede's The Fiddle Book (1967).
