Thread Name: Origin: Bells of Rhymney (Idris Davies/Pete Seeger
Subject: RE: Bells of Rhymney
Entirely too cool. My curiosity in the bells is from the Emmylou Harris song "Goin Back to Harlan". Frail my heart apart
and play me a little Shady Grove
Ring the bells of rhymney
till they ring inside my head forever
Bounce the bow. Rock the gallows
For the hangmans reel
And wake the devil from his dream.
This song is so spiritual that I have to be all alone to listen to it.
