Subject: ADD: Tatus- Polish Haying Song
Hey, I actually found a version that mentions "tatus." -Joe Offer (e-mail sent)-
POLISH HAYING SONG
On a Monday morning, sunny Monday morning, Sowed our seed, tatus* and I Sowed it when the sun was high Sowed our seed, tatus and I Sowed it when the sun was high
Tuesday...mowed our hay Wednesday...dried our hay Thursday...raked our hay Friday...hauled our hay....hauled it 'til the dusk was nigh
On a Saturday morning, sunny noon and evening Sold our hay, tatus and I Sold it when the night was nigh...
On a Sunday morning, bright and sunny morning Bowed our heads, tatus and I Thanked the Lord who dwells on high
*pronounced TAH-toosh - affectionate name for "father"
