Thread Name: songs about British and American farmers
Subject: RE: British and American farmers
Brez, Practically every Bothy Ballad ever written has a go at mean farmers. These are songs mainly of the 19th century from the North East of Scotland. There are thousands of them. they have their equivalents in England too, the bvest known in East Yorkshire is called 'Mutton Pie'. If it's not in the DT I can post one of the many versions for you.
