| + | According to Grose's The 1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue a 'black jack' was "a jug to drink out of, made of jacked leather." The black jack was a sturdy leather tumbler lined with resin or black pitch as waterproofing and was a common tankard in alehouses and taverns, or anyplace where drink was typically served. Whether the tune title refers to this is unknown, as alternative explanations may be equally plausible. | ||
