Fergus of Galloway (died 12 May 1161) was a twelfth-century Lord of Galloway. Although his familial origins are unknown, it is possible that he was of Norse-Gaelic ancestry. Fergus first appears on record in 1136, when he witnessed a charter of David I, King of Scotland. There is considerable evidence indicating that Fergus was married to a bastard daughter of Henry I, King of England. Although the identity of this woman is unknown, it is possible that she was the mother of Fergus' three children.

Now I'm gettin' old and feeble and I cannot work no more,, That rusted bladed hoe I've laid to rest . The chimney's falling down and the roof's all caved in, I ain't got long round her to remain, But the angel watches over me when I lay down to sleep, In my little old log cabin in the lane. Now the footpath is covered over that led us round the hill, The fences are all going to decay, The pond is all dried up where we once would go to mill, But time has turned it's course another way, Well I ain't got long to stay here and what little time I've got, I'll try and rest contented.
And old masters and old mrs they are sleepin' side by side. Near the little old log cabin in the lane. Oh the chimney's fallen down and the roof's all caved in. Lettin' in the sunshine and the rain. And the only friend I've got now is that good old dag of mine. And the little old log cabin in the lane. Oh the trees have all growed up that lead around the hill. The fences have all gone to decay. I want to rest content wile I remain. Til death shall call this dog and me to find a better home. And a little old log cabin in the lane.
A log cabin is a small log house, especially a less finished or architecturally sophisticated structure. Log cabins have an ancient history in Europe, and in America are often associated with first generation home building by settlers. Construction with logs was described by Roman architect Vitruvius Pollio in his architectural treatise De Architectura
Carlin, Country Music, p. x: "One artist whom Brockman recommended was a fifty-plus-year-old fiddler and sometime house painter named Fiddlin' John Carson; the Okeh label dutifully made a custom record of Carson singing the ury popular song 'The little Old Log Cabin in the Lane' for Brockman to sell, but didn't even bother to assign a master.

Oh I'm gettin' old and feeble and I cannot work no more The children no more gather 'round my door And old masters and old mrs they are sleepin' side by side Near the little old log cabin in the lane. Oh the chimney's fallen down and the roof's all caved in Lettin' in the sunshine and the rain And the only friend I've got now is that good old dag of mine And the little old log cabin in the lane.
