SATURDAY NIGHT [1]. English, Morris Dance Tune (6/8 time, 'slows' in 4/4 time). B Flat Major (Bacon): C Major (Raven): F Major (Bacon): G Major (Bacon Longborough, Mallinson). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Bacon Longborough): AABB (Bacon Bledington, Raven): AAB (Bacon, Mallinson). Collected from the villages of Bledington (Gloucestershire), Bucknell (Oxon) and Longborough (Gloucestershire) in England's Cotswolds. Bob Patten collected this verse from Harry Adams at Ile Abbots, Somerset, in 1978:
Saturday night I lost my wife
And where do you think I found her?
Up in the moon, playing a tune
With all the girls around her.
