The old 78 recording I have of the tune was played and sung by "The Hoosier Hotshots", sometime back in the 1930s.

I recall the intro to the song:
When the sun goes down and the chores are through
There ain't nothin better that I like to do
Than to sit around the house when the folks ain't home
And listen to the music on the gramaphone.
I like mountain music good ol mountain music
Played by a real hillbilly band.
etc etc etc

I'm not positive, but I think the line "Jimmy rules the rhythm" is wrong. I think the true line is: "Gimme rural rhythm".

You got to love google! Here are some pages that I found about "I Like Mountain Music". The first is a list of the different people who have released that song. None of them look old enough to be the original.

However, there appears to be a short or cartoon with the same name which probably has the original song on it. At lease the date is right.

I like mountain music
