Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Lampton Worm? / The Lambton Worm
Subject: RE: The Lampton Worm
#1 Peasant (ten years ago!) thanks for that great ballad which tells the whole tale; the way he manages to slay the beast and the curse falling on the Lamptons being entirely missing from the regular song.
The curse still works. The once proud Wearside brewery Vaux came up with a Lampton's beer. They are no more.
