jody Lyr Req: Lincoln lye do oh - the Weaver's Wife (3) Lyr Req: Lincoln lye di oh - the Weaver's Wife 15 Oct 03


Long ago I was browsing a book of songs from Vermont, perhaps a WPA effort published in the '30's with a fragment of a song. Just the first verse and chorus, But I remember it well, and the modal tune too. Does anyone know more of this?

There was a Major lived in York
Who the weaver's wife loved dearly
From her lodging she would go
For to court him late and early

Lie low Lincoln lie di oh
Lie low Lincoln lay
