I hitched that mule one morning to take my girl a ride, He kicked both hind feet over the shafts, and kicked her in the side; He kicked the feathers from a goose; he broke the elephant's back; He stopped the Texas railway train, and kicked it off the track. Oh hear them sleighbells ringing, the snow is falling fast; So with a mule \vi th room for two, just watch us going past. And don't get scared at nothing, what you hear or what you see, And, Liza, I'll stay with this mule, and you must stay vlith me. Just see them snowflakes flying. Lookout. Let them sail. Watch them ears of his'n and see him wag his tail. Going to the preacher's, Liza; you keep cool, Hain't got time to kiss you now; I 1m busy with this mule. Little bee came flying around, came flying around the well, This little mule gave him one good kick, his head began to swell. Took him down to the blacksmith's shop, and hitched him all alone, He kicked both hindfeet till he died, and oh, how he did groan. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I stood a while and did admire, To see a nymph so stately, So brisk an air there did appear, In a country maid so neatly, Such natural sweetness she displayed, Like lillies in a boggy, Diana’s self was never arrayed, Like this same Katherine Oggy.

O! were I but some shepherd swain, To feed my flock beside thee, At bugling time to leave the plain, In milking to abide thee, I would think myself a happier man, With Kate, my club, and doggy, Than he that hugs his thousands ten, Had I but Katherine Oggy. Then I would despise the imperial throne, And statesmen’s dangerous stations, I would be no king I would wear no crown, I would smile at conquering nations, Might I caress, and still possess, This lass of whom I am voggy, For they are toys, and still looks less, Compared with Katherine Oggy. But I fear the gods have not decreed, For me so fine a creature, Whose beauty rare makes her exceed, All other works in nature, Clouds of despair surround my love, That are both dark and foggy, Pity my case, ye powers above, Else I die for Katherine Oggy.

He has prospered and grown wealthy Since a youth he’dawent away And now his life was one of pomp and show But coldly did he greet them For his friends were by his side Who’d often heard him boost of home so grand Then the old man sadly looked at him And said with modest pride While he gently took his dear wife by the hand. CHORUS We’re just plain folks your mother and me Just plain folks like our own folks used to be As our presents seem to grieve you We will go away and leave you For we’re sadly out of place here For we’re just plain folks Taint so long ago that you were just a simple country lad And did the work a country lad should do In those days you never looked with shame on mother and old dad In fact my boy we both were proud of you But something seems too’ve changed you Your wealth has brought strange pride But riches sometimes takes its wings they say Then you’ll always find a hearty welcome at your parents side They’ll greet you in the same old way. folk songs Just Plain Folks songs and music pride songs and music vanity https://omeka-test.library.appstate.edu/files/original/c742b3f1f9c991a1cb53af9ce4e5a03f.pdf 37308ca55af1ce43cf14b23edd5bac6d PDF Text Text � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Scripto Transcription A written representation of a document. Johnny Dowl Last Saturday evening way late in the night, As we and my true love was about to take flight, My waiting maid a standing by so plainly you may say see, She run unto my mammy and told upon me. My mother she led me into my room, There no one could see me nor no one could come, She bundled up my clothing and she bid me to be gone, So slowly and stily (?) did I slip them on. Five hundred pounds my Father did provide, Besides horse and pilions to ride by my side, And sit noble horsemen to ride by my side, In order to make me young Samuel Moore’s bride. We rode and we rode till we came to the town, We rode to Mister Gordens and there we did get down, We rode to Mister Gordens and there we did light down, So sore sick and weary my body I found. As soon as the priest he did enter the door, My ear rings they bursted and fell to the floor, My sixty five stay laces in pieces they flew, I thought my poor heart was a breaking into. Behind my own brother they carried me home, My Mother she led me its into my room, She led me to my bed side and there I did lay down So sick, sore and weary my poor body was. Oh Mother, oh mother, its bar up the door, Until the break of day, don’t let in Samuel Moore For before this time tomorrow its death shall end all strife, He never shall enjoy me nor call me his wife. Oh daughter, oh daughter, shall we sned for Johnny Dowl Oh mother, oh mother, it’s scarcely worth while, For there is more grief at my heart than my tongue can tell, And the last words she spoke was “Dear Johnny, fare you well.” irish ballads Johnny Dowl Johnny Doyle Johnny Dye Johnny Dyers songs and music abuse songs and music love sickness https://omeka-test.library.appstate.edu/files/original/2310d1d24364ad0bf7271c027fc2f2bb.pdf 394481b3d46187668b0b8e61e660a876 PDF Text Text � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I stepped up to her and kindly asked her If she would be a young sailor's wife. “Oh no,” said she, “ I will not marry, I prefer to live a single life”. Oh, what's the reason that youv won't marry ? You differ from all female kind, For you are young, both fair and handsome, And sure to get married your mind's inclined. “I could have been married to one John Reilly, I could have been married three years ago, But he has left me and crossed the ocean, And he was the cause of my overthrow”. “Do leave John Reilly and do disdain him, And go with me to some foreign shore. And we'll sail over to California, And bid adieu to Reilly ever more.” “I will not go with you to California, I will not go with you to some foreign shore, My heart's with Reilly, and ne'er can leave him, Although I see him never more.” And when he found that her love was loyal, He gave her kisses, both one , two, and three, Saying, “I'm the man you call John Reilly, And I have come for to marry thee ! “ english ballads George Reilly George Riley irish courtship John Reiley John Reilley John Reilly John Riley's Courtship songs and music homecoming songs and music sailors The Constant Damsel https://omeka-test.library.appstate.edu/files/original/3f14000ee84a5193315a101ad3afb366.pdf e690cebf2e1fda33929c11cfa58fe7c4 PDF Text Text ( \ illy. .,, ' -. • ( t, 9 ¢.:ftff. ~ w 1,. o-f ~ ?t-o 0.

Jockey To the Fair It was on the morn of sweet May day, When nature painted all things gay, Taught birds to sing and lambs to play, And gild the meadows ran.

It is I my love, and no one near, Step gently down, you have naught to fear, With Jockey to the fair, etc. My dad and mamma is fast asleep, My brothers is up and with the sheep, And will you still your promise keep, Which I have heard you swear? And will you ever constant prove? I will by all the powers-abov of love, And never deceive my charming dove: Dispel these doubts, and haste, my love, With Jockey to the fair, etc. Behold the ring! the shepherd cried, Will Jenny be my charming bride? Let Cupid be our happy guide, And Hymen meet us there. Then Jockey did his vowel renew, He would be constant, would be true: His word was pledged away she flew, Over cowslip lift with balmy dew, With Jockey to the fair, etc. In rapture meet the jovial throng, Their gay companions blithe and young: Each join the dance, each join the song, And hail the happy day: Returned, there is none so fond as they, They blessed the kind propitious day, The smiling morn of blooming May, When lovely Jenny ran away, With Jockey to the fair, etc. 'Twas on the Morn folk songs Jockey to the Fair songs and music songs and music fairs songs and music proposal With Jockey to the Fair https://omeka-test.library.appstate.edu/files/original/085e9b6f71abdc7275e70271736af385.pdf cac8403791d2455efbe62493f4ea22b4 PDF Text Text JERRY GO -NIMBLE Sir Jerry Go-Nimble was lame of a leg, Hey diddle, ho diddle dee, And my lady Go-Nimble had barely on peg; F::>r a. very old lady was rue.

The Soldier Lass Poor Jack has gone a sailing with trouble in his mind, A leaving in this country his darling girl behind, There was a wealthy merchant in London he did dwell, And he had an only daughter the truth to you I’ll tell. This lady she was courted by gents of high degree, She loved none but Jack the sailor who ploughs the raging sea If this be true my daughter of what I’ve heard of thee, Then Jack he shall be banished and you confined shall be. Oh, Pa, you may have my body, my heart you can’t confine, There is none but Jack, the sailor, can win thisheart of mine, She went into the tavern to dress in men’s array, And unto the ship she started to convey herself away. Before you come on board sir, your name I’d like to know, She smiled within her countenance they call me Jack Monroe, Your waist it is tooslender, your fingers they are small, Your cheeks too red and rosy to face the cannon ball. My waist is very slender, my fingers they are small, But it never makes me tremble to see ten thousand fall, The drum began to beat, the fife began to play, Unto the field of battle they all did march away. The wars all being ended, she took a circle round Among the dead and wounded her darling boy she found, She took him in her arms and carried him to town, And sent for London doctors to heal his bloody wound.
