This tune is older'n dirt, so it's hard to know where to start with a history of it. Know, though, that Maybelle Carter released "The Little Sparrow" years ago with the same lyrics. |

We learned this one from a 1929 recording by blues singer/guitarist Tampa Red, who probably wrote it with Georgia Tom Dorsey, who also was on the recording. |
