Subject: LyrReq: Howfen Wakes
I’m looking for accurate lyrics to Howfen Wakes. I think I can get most of what The Houghton Weavers are singing when listening to it but some bits I’m not sure about, such as the first line: ‘Hey lads, hang your thoughts. Nay, I’ve not fought yet’ in Lancashire dialect (‘thowts/fowt’ etc.)? https://youtu.be/I4gZnvrmexc
