SHE'S A LASSIE FROM LANCASHIRE. English, Air and Waltz-Clog (3/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "She's a lassie from Lancashire" was a popular British Music Hall song recorded by Florrie Forde in 1932. The first two stanzas of the song go:

From a dear little Lancashire town
A boy had sail'd, away.
Across the briny spray.
To toil in U. S. A.
When American girls gather'd round
And sought his company.
He'd say: "There's only one girl for me."

She's a lassie from Lancashire,
Just a lassie from Lancashire,
She's the lassie that I love dear,
Oh! so dear.
Though she dresses in clogs and shawl,
She's the prettiest of them all.
None could be fairer or rarer than Sarah,
My lass from Lancashire.
