Did you learn traditional American folks in school or as a kid?

People always shit on Americans for not having culture but thinking back, a lot of the songs I learned in elementary school or from my parents were definitely American folk songs. A few that come to mind that actually pretty deep cultural history are

Home on the Range - pining for a simpler frontier life

Oh My Darling (clementine) - ballad about a miner out west

Red River Valley - song about a woman being sad that her man is going back east (I think this is also a folk song in Canada)

I’ve Been Working on the Railroad - America was once ironically a leader in railroad construction so obviously this is about railroads

Any others you guys learned as kids? Curious if there are regional differences too.
