Thread Name: Lyr Req: What can I sing at a wedding? / songs
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What can I sing at a wedding ?
If it's Trad/folk ballad you intend to sing:
Top of the Mountain (Bonny Blue Eyed Lassie)
Trip O'er the Mountain
Two that I have ang at weddings.
DON'T sing 'The Red Haired Man's Wife!'
I did and found out later that it is a curse ballad
and should never even be uttered near a wedding.
(Thank God they are boyh still together)
