YORKSHIRE LASSES [1]. AKA and see "Rollicking Irishman (The)," "Top of Cork Road (1)," "Cork Road," "Father O'Flynn," "To Drink with the Devil," "Trample Our Enemies," "Bonny Green Garters (1)," "Irish Lilt (The)." English, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Despite the numerous Irish alternate titles, the tune seems to have first been printed in English collections, under the given title. Moffat and Kidson have located the tune in collections of 1779 and 1781, while the first Irish printing seems to have been in 1798. Longman and Broderip's Compleat Collection of 200 Favorite Country Dances, Cotillions and Allemands, vol. 2 (pg. 84) printed in London in 1781 appears to be one of the Moffat and Kidson sources. Nevertheless, ascription's to Irish origins persist.

Printed sources: Kennedy (Fiddlers Tune Book), vol. 2, 1954; p. 37 (appears as "The Rollicking Irishman"). Raven (English Country Dance Tunes), 1984; p. 101.
