The set of dance tunes I was thinking of are jigs. To quote from the liner notes: "The set of double jigs starts with The Hare in the Corn, which is followed by The Frost Is All Over. This jig has some words which we learned from a recording of Mrs. Elizabeth Cronin of Co. Cork. We've only heard a few dance tunes with words and we'd like to hear more."So it appears that the words I have are not the ones sought by the originator of this thread. Nevertheless since I took the time to type them in I will post them:
THE FROST IS ALL OVER (Jig)
(Sung by Johnny Moynihan with Planxty)
What would you do if the kettle boiled over?
What would I do only fill it again,
And what would you do if the cow ate the clover?
What would I do only set it again.
The praties are dug and the frost is all over,
Katie lie over close to the wall,
How would you like to be married to a soldier,
Kitty lie over close to the wall.
The praties are boilin' the hare and the rose,
And Kitty lie over close to the wall,
You to be drunk an me to be sober,
Kitty lie over close to the wall.
