History is reflected in the words of folk songs sung by some of our folk bandsA Long Time Ago - - A long, long time, and a long time ago, - To me way, hay, o-hio! - A long, long time, and a long time ago, - A long time ago! - 2. A smart Yankee packet lay out in the bay, - To me way, hay, o-hio! - Awaiting for a fair wind to get under way, - A long time ago! - - 3. With all her poor sailors sick and all sad, - To me way, hay, o-hio! - For they'd drunk all their whiskey, no more could be had, - A long time ago! - - 4. She was waiting for a fair wind to get under way, - To me way, hay, o-hio! - If she hasn't had a fair wind she's lying there still. - A long time ago! |

Quotations about folk bands and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-
The manner of the conveyance of sounds, which is as it were the basis of music, is unintelligible. For what can be more strange, than that the rubbing of a little Hair and Cat-gut together, should make such a mighty alteration in a Man that sits at a distance? ~ Jeremy Collier
