History is reflected in the words of many songs of many folk groups

   The Maid of Tottenham - - As I came down from Tottenham - Upon a market day - - Twas there I spied a bonny lass - Her clothing was so gay - Her journey was to London - With buttermilk and whey - So we both jogged on together, my boys - Sing fal the dal diddle al day. - 2. God speed fair maid, says I to her - You are well overtook - At that she cast her head aside - And gave to me a look - That was as full of lechery - As letters in a book - And we both jogged on together, my boys - Sing fal the dal diddle al day. - - 3. And as we walked along the road - Together side by side - This pretty maid of Tottenham - Her garter came untied - For fear that she might lose it - Look out sweetheart, I cried - Your garter's coming down my love - Sing fal the dal diddle al day.

 
 

Quotations about Folk Groups.      

Quotations about folk groups and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

The fashion for popular airs has spread quickly throughout the musical world. From east to west the tiniest villages have been ransacked, and simple tunes, plucked from the mouths of hoary peasants, find themselves, to their consternation, trimmed with harmonic frills.~ Debussy
