Thread Name: Coaxing elf (from Star of the County Down)
Subject: Coaxing Elf
I had a Senior moment last Monday and screwed up the words to County Down.
Thought I would refresh my memory and consulted the Digitrad - is it ? Anyhow the place where you find the words.
Apart from anything else - I've been singing for well-over 45 years " the cokes in hell" rather than the "coaking elf" . Can anyone elucidate as to whether a "coaking elf" exists in folklore across the Irish sea ? and whether I might just have been singing the correct words all the time (or not).Cheers Betsy
