Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Blackbirds and Thrushes
On my Robin Hall and Jimmie MacGregor album, they sing the "trout and salmon" verse to "Hares On The Mountain" this way:

If the girls were all trout and salmon so lightly (x2),
Then divil a man would eat meat on a Friday.
Sing wack-falla-diddle-i-doh, sing wack-falla-day.
