Bob S. CORNISH MAY CAROL (DT Lyrics) Oss, Oss, Wee Oss Unite and unite and let us all unite For summer is a-come unto day And wither we are going, we will all unite In the merry morning of May With a merry ring and now the joyful spring O give us a cup of ale and the merrier we will sing The young men of Padstow, they might if they would They might have built a ship and gilded it all in gold The young women of Padstow, they might if they would They might have built a garland of the white rose and the red Where are those young men that now here should dance? For some they are in England and some they are in France O where is St. George? O where is he o ? He's out in his longboat All on the salt sea-o Up flies the kite Down falls the lark-o And Ursula Birdhood she had an old ewe And she died in her own park-o With a merry ring and now the joyful spring So happy are those little birds and the merrier we will sing from the May celebration at Padstow, Cornwall @ritual @Cornish filename[ CORNMAY SOF |

06 Jan 98 - 05:27 PM (#18796) Subject: RE: Req: Unite and Unite From: Bob Schwarer Sorry. Padstow is not in the DT. Steeleye Span did a version. The words are in the liner notes.(at least on the LP). For the Rankin family version go to: http://www chatsubo.com/rankins/albums/lyrics/ padstow_lyrics.html For an 1895 version go to: http://bi.org/~bje1001/maysongs.html This last one has a LOT of verses.

It was fairly quiet this year. After a day of it you wont want to hear it again for a year. They always have copies available. Oss oss wee Oss |
