Thread Name: what do the words mean?Child Ballad 281(The Creel)
Subject: what do the words mean?
In Paul Brady's amazing rendition of 'The Creel', (Child 281) he sings,
...And it's oh, the blue, the bonny blue and may the blue do well...

What does this refer to?

Thanks in advance for your assistance,
