TERRY HEIGH HO THE GRINDER [1] (Toirdealbac {Eig Og}/{Ucon an} An Meilteoir). AKA – “Tally-i-o the Grinder," "Terry the Grinder," "Tobias the Grinder." AKA and see “Grenadiers (The),” “Grinder (The),” “'Tis little for glory I care," "Margery Grinder," "Our Bride is No Maid (1)," "Search all the world over." Irish, Slip Jig (9/8 time). A Dorian/G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Versions of the slip jig in English musicians' manuscripts from the first half of the 19th century go by the title "Tobias the Grinder." Paul de Grae[1] finds song settings as "Grinders (The)" (in Crosby's Irish Musical Repository, 1808, p. 253, with the first line "Search all the world high and low"), with a chorus that begins "Terry I-o, I-p", which resulted in the later version of the title. R.M. Leavy printed an instrumental version under the title "Grinder (The)," and Paul finds another song version as "Margery Grinder".

The parts of the melody are reversed in several publications.
