kytrad (Jean Ritchie) Lyr Req: Edinburgh songs (97* d) RE: Lyr Req: Edinburgh songs 03 Mar 09


No one's mentioned, "Last night there were four Marys?....." Mind the verse:

   Last night I dressed Queen Mary
   And put on her braw silk gown,
   And a' the thanks I'm tae get for it
   Is a-hangin in Edinboro Town.

My sister Edna and I sing that on Youtube, if anyone wants to hear the Kentucky variant! It was known and sung in our family.
