Blow Bullies Blow - - A Yankee ship comes down the river, - Blow, boys, blow! - A Yankee ship with a Yankee skipper, - Blow, my bully boys, blow! - 2. How do you know she's a Yankee clipper; - Blow, boys, blow! - Because her masts and yards shine like silver. - Blow, my bully boys, blow! - - 3. Who do you think is captain of her? - Blow, boys, blow! - Old Holy Joe, the darky lover. - Blow, my bully boys, blow! - 4. What do you think she's got for cargo? - Blow, boys, blow! - Why, "black sheep" that have run the embargo. - Blow, my bully boys, blow!

Quotations about Scottish Folk Bands.

Much has been written about folk music and scottish folk bands. Here are some quotations:-

Never having thought of writing for the guitar, I asked Julian [Bream] for a chart which would explain what the guitar could do. I managed to write some rather pretty pieces for him, except that the first six notes of the first piece all need to be played on open strings. So when he begins to play, the audience will probably think he’s tuning the bloody thing up. ~ Walton
