GUEST,Carole	Lyr Req: Banks of the Mossen (24)	RE: Lyr Req: Banks of the Mossen	15 Jul 02
As I was a-walking down by some shady grove Down by some shady Nancy, my heart my soul's delight Young lambs they were a-playing All on the banks of sweet Mossom All on the banks of sweet Mossom That long true happy spring The lark all in the air She rises in the morning And brings me joyful tidings of Nancy my dear The song birds in the branches is now sit down to rest I'll write to lovely Nancy, my heat my soul's delight Oh give me ink and paper, I may sit down to write I'll write to lovely Nancy, my heart my soul's delight Ref to 'shady Nancy' in first verse. I have spoken to Shirley Collins and she confirms that this is what was collected and the words on her recordings. HTML line breaks added. --JoeClone, 18-Jul-02.
