The Wilsons do a cracking version of this on their album 'Stocking Tops'.

Trouble with Mayday songs is, they are all starting to sound like the same song. There are only so many times (31) you can go walking on a May morning, and only so many people in the household you can say hello to.

I suspect that Pete Coe heard a song very similar, decided to tweak it a bit and called it the Cheshire Mayday song because that's where he was at the time......

I'm going to learn the Dorset Floral Dance, the Plaistow Mayday song and possibly the Upstairs Toilet Anthem soon.
