Darling Clementine--a classic American folk song from the 1800s
OK, I know it only has two chords, and as a beginning uker I can't do that fancy picking and improvising that some of y'all do so well (maybe someday…) But I couldn't resist adding it to the playlist because it was fun to do and fits the theme so well.
It's the tragic tale of a young woman whose big feet in improvised shoes were the cause of her untimely death.
Fun fact from Dr. Google: "miner 49er" is a reference to the California gold rush of 1849.
