Folk groups - song lyricsRocking the Cradle - - As I roved out on a fine summer's morning - Down by a clear river I walked all alone. - I heard a poor man making sad lamentation - And thus he began to make his sad moan. - Chorus: - It makes me cry, hush-a-bye baby lie easy - For perhaps your own daddy will never be known. - Though I'm not your daddy, my wife is your mammy - I'm nursing a child that is none of my own. - 2. It's every day she walks with her bully, - And leaves me the cradle to rock all alone. - This innocent babe, he calls me his daddy, - It's little he knows that he's none of my own. - Chorus: |
Quotations about Folk Groups.
Quotations about folk groups and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-
A certain Music, never known before, Here soothed the pensive melancholy Mind; The God of Winds drew Sounds of deep Delight: Whence, with just Cause, The Harp of Aeolus it Light. Ah me! what hand can touch the strings so fine? Who up the lofty Diapason roll, Such sweet, such sad, such solemn Airs divine, Then let them down again into the Soul? ~ James Thomson
