Tradsinger	Lyr Req: Follow the Plough (8)	Anyone know this song?-follow the plough	24 Oct 10
Here's a strange one - a friend of mine collected a set of words allegedly done with a Gloucestershire Mummers Play. Now the play is a bit strange and I can't find any other versions of this song, so I suspect it is not traditional but composed. Here are a couple of verses: Through the hills and the valleys where I used to roam Come follow, we follow, we follow the plough With four fine horses hooked to the plough We hollo, we follow the plough. There's Bonny, Duke and Smiler and All Sorts at the rear Four fine horses hooked to the plough Up and down, round and round, many miles a day We hollo, we follow the plough. Does this ring any bells with anyone? Is it a poem from somewhere? Tradsinger
