GUEST,kwight Origins: Rosy Betsy, blue eyed Molly Molly (39) RE: Origins: Rosy Betsy, blue eyed Molly Molly 15 Dec 17


My father-in-law, born in the mid 1930s, sang the song to our children as follows:

Rosy Betsey, blue-eyed Molly Molly
Tis the time for April folly folly
Blackbird shouts ring round about -
And Jenny Wren is singing in the willow.

Put on your coat of red and blue
Put on your coat of red and blue
Put on your coat of red and blue
For Jenny Wren is singing in the willow.
