trischief | Lyr Req: 'As I went down the new-cut road...' (10) | tinker and a toad | 02 Jan 10 |
Hello- My grandfather would recite a rhyme that went something like this: "When I was walking down the road I saw a tinker and a toad. Every time the toad would jump the tinker hid behind the stump." Somehow this became connected with the BILLY PATTERSON lyric "...your horse may die. If he dies I'll tan his skin....". The connection may have been in my own mind and faulty memory. |
