Transcription: by Darryl D. Bush
"Pull Down the Sheets" is an American reel in G Major. The parts are played AABB. It was<br> collected from Irvin Yaugher in Fayette County in southwestern Pennsylvania by Samuel<br> Bayard in 1946.<br> Although he thought the tune sounded like an Irish hornpipe or reel, Bayard (1981) was unable to<br> trace an ancestral tune for it.<br> A version collected from James Bryner in 1960 was titled by him "Downfall of Water Street" but<br> it is very different from the jig version printed in Cole's 1000 Fiddle Tunes.<br> Both versions were printed in Bayard's Dance to the Fiddle (1981).<br>
