It was first picked up as a folk song in 1910 by John Lomax in San Antonio, Texas. Lomax heard the song from an old man who had been a cook many years before. The song was known all over the Midwest; thought it did not come to national attention until the early 1930s.

He had got every kind of food that he required except fish, which happened to be hard to get, for the weather had been too stormy for fisherman to go out to seas.On the very morning of the dinner, however, a fisherman appeared at the rich mans house with a fine turbot （比目鱼）for sale. The fish was gladly accepted, and the fisherman was asked to name his price.“One hundred lashes（鞭子）, sir, and nothing less,” was the strange answer. “And these lashes must be laid on my bare back.”As the fisherman could not be persuaded to take money instead of whipping, the lashes were laid. After he had received fifty lashes out of the hundred, he cried out, “Stop! I have had my share. I have a partner in this business, and it is right that the remaining fifty should be given to him.”“What!” said the rich man, “Is there another such madman in the world? Call him in, and let us see him.”“You need not go far, sir,” said the fisherman. “He is your own porter. He would not let me pass until I promised that he should have half of the price to be paid for my fish.”“Call him in,” said the rich man angrily. “He shall have his fifty lashes.”The fifty lashes given, the porter was dismissed and the fisherman was paid for his fish.11.

He began to breathe when he was born, and he will not stop until he dies; still he does it without thinking about it.See how long you can hold your breath.In some places men dive in the sea for the pearls（珍珠）. They pick up shells that hold the pearls, and the longer they stay under water, the more pearls they can find. For the reason they hold their breath as long as they possibly can. Yet even these pearl divers cant go without breathing for a long time.Watch to see how many times a man draws his breath every minutes. Some men breathe fifteen times a minute. An elephant breathes only eight times. It was told that a mouse breathes a hundred and twenty times each time.No one needs to tell us that what we breathe every minutes of every day is air.

By then Tom had run out of money. He met the famous Colonel Pope. Pope was a rich man who made and sold bicycles. He agreed to pay for Toms trip to Europe, so Tom put his bicycle on a boat.Toms bike had a giant wheel in front. Sometimes the wheel broke. In Europe, there was always someone to fix it. Tom liked Europe. The roads were good there. There were wonderful things to see. Back home, people read about Toms trip in the newspapers.In Asia, the ride got harder. Most people did not speak English. Sometimes people stopped him to look at his bicycle. Animals blocked his path, but Tom rode on. Chinese people gave him gifts. Tom was pleased with the gifts, but they were heavy. The gifts slowed him down. He didnt worry about lost time, though. He was in no hurry.In January, 1887, Tom returned to San Francisco.
