BONNY PIT LADDIE, THE. AKA and see "The Bonny Keel Laddie." English, Jig. England, Northumberland. D Major (Raven, Vickers): G Major (Peacock, Bruce & Stokoe). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Bruce & Stokoe, Vickers): AABBCC (Raven-Fenwick): AABBCCDDEEFFGG (Peacock). From "A Tutor for the Northumbrian Small-pipes" by J.W. Fenwick, published in late 1800's; "From Mrs. Thompson's Collection" (Fenwick). Most versions seem to have 6-bar strains, though Vickers' does not. The tune's title appears in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes, which he published c. 1800.

The bonny pit laddie, the canny pit laddie,
The bonny pit laddie for me, O!
He sits in his hole as black as a coal,
And brings the white siller to me, O! (Stokoe).

Bruce & Stokoe (Northumbrian Minstrelsy), 1882; p. 150. Peacock's Tunes, 1980 (originally c. 1805); No. 39, p. 18. Raven (English Country Dance Tunes), 1984; p. 97. Seattle (William Vickers), 1770/1987, Part 2; No. 255.
