Thread Name: What songs did Mudcatters learn in school
Subject: RE: What songs did Mudcatters learn in school
In Primary school we were taught 'Here's a health unto his Majesty' (English Civil War) and we all sang it with gusto as we were also taught that the baddies, Cromwell's lot, had been responsible for the destruction of the local castle so the lines 'I'll wish him neither wit nor wealth, Nor yet a rope to hang himself' always rang out :) Other songs were 'Frere Jacques' and 'Sur la pont d'Avignon'
