WALTZ QUADRILLE [3]. American, Waltz-Quadrille (3/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB or AABB. The first strain is similar to "Waltz Quadrille (1)" collected by R.P. Christeson (1973, vol. 1, No. 245, p. 204), and Jarman's "Waltz Quadrille (2)". These words were collected with the tune from source Gustav Erdmann:

Give me ee that man that'll never get drunk,
That'll never go out on a spree;
That'll stay the whole night, what'll stay with the wife,
And right rock the baby to sleep.

Source for notated version: Gustav Erdmann {b. ca. 1882} (Wisconsin) [Reiner & Anick].

Printed sources: Reiner & Anick (Old Time Fiddling Across America), 1989; p. 127.
