Subject: Lyr Add: TWICE DAILY (partial)
> = my version

V1
One day while out upon the moo (meadow)
> Tossing hay upon the mound

V2
So sweet and pure but I weren't sure
If young girls be willin
One day while out upon the mo
>Till one day, among the hat,
> we was working gaily

V3
Nine months went past and now this lass
Thickened round the middle
????????????????????????????,
??????????????????????????????????
It ain't new bread the young girl said
??????????????????????????????????????

I sing

V3
She says my dear I do feel queer
Think I ought to tell ee
T'ain't new bread she sadly said
That's swelling up my belly
Orta go to Doctor Joe
Off she wend so gaily
Gave her a dollop o' gurt thick jollop
Says "Take this twice daily"

It's by Adge Cutler, of Adge Cutler and the Wurzels (60's UK)

Wurzel=turnip/swede
Jollop=medicine

Hope this helps
