The 'A' and 'B' parts are French-Canadian, the 'C' part is the 'B' part of "[[Judy's Reel]]" (AKA - "[[Maid Behind the Bar (1) (The)]]"), printed in '''Ryan’s Mammoth Collection/Cole's 1000'''.

According to the authors, Ringuette composed two parts of the tune, then added the second strain of the Irish reel “Maid Behind the Bar” (AKA "Judy's Reel") as a third part. Jean Carignan further modified the first part, but kept Ringuette’s second part and the adopted (“Maid Behind the Bar”) third part. The first two strains in were the repertory of fiddler Jos (Joe) Bouchard (1905-1979) who recorded the reel in Montreal in 1938 for Victor Records (issued on their subsidiary label, Bluebird). It was titled "[[Reel St-Siméon]]" on Bouchard's recording, and omitted the Irish third strain.

RONFLEUSE GOBEIL, LA. AKA and see "Gigue des vieux soulless," "Reel St-Siméon," "Snoring Mrs. Gobeil," "Snoring Gobeil." French-Canadian, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Miller & Perron): AABBCC {40 bar reel} (Bégin, Carlin, Hinds). The 'A' and 'B' parts are French-Canadian, the 'C' part is the 'B' part of "Judy's Reel" (AKA - "Maid Behind the Bar (1) (The)"), printed in Ryan’s Mammoth Collection/Cole's 1000. Hart & Sandell (2001) note the tune was first recorded in 1927 on 78 RPM by fiddler Wellie "Willie/Willy" Ringuette [1] (1898-1969) of Trois-Rivières, one of the great Montréal fiddler Jean Carignan’s teachers. According to the authors, Ringuette composed two parts of the tune, then added the second strain of the Irish reel “Maid Behind the Bar” (AKA "Judy's Reel") as a third part. Jean Carignan further modified the first part, but kept Ringuette’s second part and the adopted (“Maid Behind the Bar”) third part. The first two strains in were the repertory of fiddler Jos (Joe) Bouchard (1905-1979) who recorded the reel in Montreal in 1938 for Victor Records (issued on their subsidiary label, Bluebird). It was titled "Reel St-Siméon" on Bouchard's recording, and omitted the Irish third strain. Montreal fiddler Isidore Soucy (1899-1962) recorded his version in 1929; it was much like Ringuette's, albeit slightly 'crooked' or irregular', but was issued as "[[Gigue des vieux soulless" (Old Shoes Jig).

Jean Carignon popularized the melody in the second half of the 20th century, followed by la Bottine Souriante on their 1978 album “Ya bend u changement.”
