This song has quite a history so I thought it would be perfect for this lofi edition of the Sunday Song. Originally recorded by Sugar Boy and his Cane Cutters in 1953, most people are more familiar with the 1965 rendition from The Dixie Cups. Here's my version on canjo and cigar box amp. Why not?

Thanks Danny. I always like to include those history tidbits... glad someone appreciates them. :-)
Nice sounding amp and canjo. I really like you videos they are so informative
Thanks AGP. I appreciate you tuning in each week.
"A Blast From The Past", and nice to see a Canjo being well played, well done Poorness. :-)
Thanks BrianQ and Doug. Glad I could help with a smile... your are right about that Brian. And you nailed it Doug. This canjo has virtually no bass frequencies. It's kinda hard to sing with but hey... I had to give it a shot.
I actually recognized this song Kale. Someone chose it once at the ukulele group I’m part of. That Canjo has quite a different tone; absolutely no bass. But you made it work with another great performance! Keeping it real …. and different. Works for me!!!
Kool, I used to have a friend who would spark up this song around a bonfire, like it was the thing to do? Such a happy sounding song, thanx for sharing, we need every smile we can get these days :)
Thanks John. It is a fun little instrument. This one has 2 strings... both .013 tuned to a C.
Goof Off! I always liked that song. Little canjo sounds pretty good.
