Good job, Rob! I know that this is Critique Corner, but I really don't have any constructive criticism. I like that tune. I also like the color of your fiddle.

When the work's all done and the sun's settin' low,

I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow.

Great job Rob.
There are a few notes that you can correct to make it sound that much better. (Not because it is bad or anything)
2nd finger B natural on the G string should be higher. 1st finger B natural on the A string slightly higher. 2nd finger C natural on the A string lower.

Lift the right elbow a bit to free that bow arm up and keep the left wrist slightly straighter.

Thanks for the post, and great job :-)
