My mother and father would sing a lot around the house, . My mother's songs included. " The Doffin Mistress", My Aunt Jane (I'll tell me ma"} - Let Him Go Let Him Tarry - and a little rocking song called Bangor Boats Away, this one she rocked us on her knee and then let you sort of drop back off her knees at the end. My father had a wealth of songs and could really sing as well. Some of his favourites were " The Green Bushes" - "Nut Brown Maiden" "Mountains of Pomeroy" " Eileen Alannah" - The Boston BUrglar" and one called " and others too many to list. They are both deceased now but I still think of them when I sing any one of the songs. This is a nice thread.
