Thread Name: Irish choruses lyrics
Subject: Irish choruses lyrics
Hello all. Can anyone give me some knowledge (or educated guess) how some of the wonderful choruses of Irish folk songs get their variations? For example, "The Spanish Lady" offers, (1) "Raddy a the too dum;" (2) "Whack for the toor a;" (3) "Whack fol the toora." Just curious as I relish the music. Have happy holidays. Sheila
