DeanC | Origins: What does 'Hal an Tow' mean? (90* d) | What does 'Hal an Tow' mean? | 24 Oct 01 |
The DT lists the first line of the chorus as "Hal an tow, jolly rumbalo." Does any one have an explanation for where this came from, what it means, or alternative interpretations of what the words are? Having never seen it written out before I always thought of it as "Hall and toe, jolly run below," but that makes no more sense than the DT version. |
