Alabamians have always been a singing people. The settlers who
moved into the various sections of the state brought with them
songs which reflected their national origins and geographical
backgrounds, and as they spread into the hills and over the
lowlands they created new songs out of the conditions under which
they lived. Also, they absorbed songs from outside sources whenever
these pieces could be adapted to their sentiments and ways of life.
Thus, by a process of memory, composition and recreation they
developed a rich body of folk songs. The following collection a
part of the effort to discover and preserve these songs.
