A few years ago I heard a song (on a streaming service that shall not be named), which was the tune of the Roving Journeyman, but with lyrics about the trials and tribulations of working in a cotton mill. I can't remember the song now, and it bugs me every time the tune is played. The only part of a line I remember is "you knew her by the way she wore a bobbin in her hair", and then the last line of the verse often ended with "[something] cotton dust". Does *anyone* else have a recollection of this, or is just me? Any help to end my quest and save my bandmates from me saying "this has these lyrics..." every time we play it is much appreciated! |
