Thread Name: Coalowner & Pitman's Wife tune question
Subject: RE: Coalowner & Pitman's Wife tune question
The former has 12 verses (including the one you mention) in the revised edition of 1978, but was shortened, I think, in the original 1952 edition. Tune from tradition, text from a MS in the Picton Library "communicated by J S Bell".
