Bea-Jay Lyr Req: spinning wheel / Island Spinning Song (6) Lyr Req: spinning wheel 15 Nov 11


looking for lyrics to a 'working song'
spinner is asking the wheel if she will have a true love, one of the verses, says be he dark or be fair or be he debonaire. There is a chorus which is basically 'mouth music'
Think this is a song that was 'parlorized' many moons ago.
Certainly one that was once taught in (Scottish) schools.
Might come from 'Songs of the Isles' but I can't find it!
Can anyone help please
thanks,
Bea-Jay
