Puffenkinty | Origins: Eggs and Marrowbone (23) | Eggs and Marrowbone | 13 Aug 02 |
Does anybody know the origin of the song "Eggs and Marrowbone"? It tells the same story as the song that begins "There was an old woman in Wexford/In Wexford town did dwell/She loved her husband dearly/But another man twice as well". Is "Eggs and Marrowbone" an American variant? Thanks |
