Choose by opening key

Two of the available Off She Goes scores open in D major, while one opens in G major. Check the opening key signature if you need a particular key. The score details do not show that one key is more suitable than another.

Use the 6/8 metre as a starting point

All three available scores use a 6/8 opening time signature. One score gives an opening tempo of 60 BPM, but the others carry no tempo marking. Treat that tempo as a detail of one score rather than a definitive performing tempo for the tune.

Compare title variants

One score is titled Off She Goes (In the North); the other two use the plain title Off She Goes. The available details do not explain whether the subtitle marks a distinct version, so compare the scores themselves if that distinction matters to you.

Composer and attribution

The available Off She Goes scores credit no individual composer and list “Misc Traditional” as the artist, with “folk” as the genre. This presents the piece as a traditional folk tune in the catalogue, but the scores do not establish its origin, date or named author.
