My version of this lovely little song comes from The Daily Express Community Songbook published in 1927. In the preface to the book it notes that on November 20th 1926 ten thousand people assembled in the Albert Hall (London UK) to launch the Daily Express Community Singing Movement. It lists the Tailor and the Mouse as a Somerset Folk Song. The tune is also slightly different. |
