Thread Name: Lyr Req: How Many Miles to Dublin Town?
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: How Many Miles to Dublin Town?
My Lancashire Grandma used to sing this:

Chip chip my little man
Chip chip again sir
Is this the way to London Town?
Aye and back again sir

Chip chip my little man
Chip chip again sir
Can I get there by candlelight?
Aye and back again sir

She would finish by saying:
My tale's ended, my back's bended
Go to the next door and you'll soon get it mended.
