RedFez (inactive) Lyr Req: Jone's Ale + Ramblings of Spring (8) Jones' Ale and Ramblings of Spring 27 Apr 99


The DigiTrad database lists several versions of When Jones' Ale Was New, but I am looking for yet another that I heard growing up. In this version, there are five tradesmen, a soldier, a roving man, a tinker, a ragman, and..one more, I can't remember. The chorus has a line about "The landlord's daughter she came in, and we kissed her rosy cheeks again, and we all sat down and then we sing, 'When Jones' ale was new'..." If anyone has the lyrics to this verion, I would appreciate getting a copy of them at redfez@hotmail.com.

Likewise, the Digital Tradition does not have the song Ramblings of Spring...if anyone has a copy of the lyrics to this song, I would also very much appreciate having them sent to the above e-mail address. Also, I would recommend submitting it to the database.
