DURHAM OLD WOMEN. AKA and see "Joyful Days is Coming." English, Air (9/8 time). England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB.
As aw was gannin' to Durham,
Aw met wi' three jolly brisk women;
Aw asked 'What news at Durham?'
They said--"Joyfull news is coming:
"There's three sheeps' heads i' the pot,
A peck o' peasmeal in the pudding;"
They jump'd, laugh'd, and skipp'd at that,
For the joyful days are coming. (Bruce & Stokoe)
