GUEST,Dai Jeffries Lyr Req: Semi demi quaver (31) RE: Lyr Req: Semi demi quaver 27 Sep 14

A bit late I know but I heard this song last night for the first time since about 1973. The author was Thomas D'Urfey (isn't it always?)and the lyrics given are the now usual distillation of a whole set of floaters. A tailor's goose was a flat iron and 'stabble' was originally 'stab awl'. In the west country it was pronounced 'starbole'.
