I thought it was some form of "England", but I hear what I as a non-English-native speaker would write down as Ingall every time I listen to my record. Engle and Ingall could be (in my un-knowing opinion) pronounced quite similar, so I guess you are right, Timbrel.

It's "Engle", dialect for "England."

MudGuard,

I've always heard that line as "I wish I was far away in England".

If, as the DT suggests, this song is from Nova Scotia, there is a certain logic in the next line ("Far across the briny sea").

Regards

Walrus

In the song Peggy Gordon a place called Ingo is named ("I wish I was away in Ingo").
Do you know where it is? Or is it a misspelling? If so, what is the correct spelling and where is that place?
TIA
MudGuard
