There are a number of mistakes and an entirely incorrect verse (from another song) in "A Wee Docht and Doris" - filename[ DOCHDORS
I posted lyrics from the sheet music in this message
-Joe-
A Place in the Choir, filename[ PLACHOIR, is by Bill Staines
Two typos in HE KELTY CLIPPIE - filename filename[ KELTYCLP.txt
The title, of course, should be "The Kelty Clippie." There's a space in "it's" in the chorus that shouldn't be there.
In addition, the file name should probably be simply KELTYCLP and not KELTYCLP.txt
Otherwise, the DT text seems to be a perfect transcription of the lyrics in The Scottish Folksinger
"No Man's Land" by Eric Bogle
filename[ NOMANLD
Looks like an exact transcription of the lyrics from ericbogle.net - just one typo in the second line - the word "gy" is obviously incorrect. I question "no Willie McBride" in the first line of the fourth verse, but that's also what they have on the Bogle Website.
BobKnight's transcription and the DT version are essentially the same, with a few minor differences. I will agree that Bob's transcription is generally closer to to the lyrics Bogle sings on the By Request CD.
Note that ericbogle.net claims to be the official Eric Bogle Website. It does seem authentic, but note that it is located in South Africa. Even "official Websites are often wrong.
Stone Cold Dead in the Market
filename[ COLDDEAD
One line has "I'm goming back" - the source was my posting of the lyrics in the Forum, and the typographical mistake was mine. Please cover up for my peccadillo and replace it with "I'm coming back."
Fiddler's Green filename[ FIDGREEN - note that the spelling of the songwriter name is John Conolly. There are several minor errors in the transcription. See this message for a corrected transcription of the lyrics.
