In 1962 I was doing teaching practise in a Junior school and they listened to a BBC Singing programme. One of the songs has stuck in my mind

Let us dance upon the hay
Father will grumble, father will grumble
Let us dance upon the hay
Father will grumble, mother won't mind.

In the next verses they decide to visit various relatives to eat or drink
'nothing to pay'

The attitude seems similar to that in the last song in Seiber/ Bartok/ Lloyd 's Hungarian songs but again Google fails me - this time I get absolutely nothing.
Can Mudcat do better?
