Traditional
First appearing in S1E2 and again in S1E6 this traditional tune I loved because of the happier and foolhardy feel. After arranging and assigning the gypsy style fiddle, and upright bass I played with a few accordion sounds. I then also picked up my old concertina and decided to lay down some real audio as well. Seriously was laughing at myself the whole time. hope you enjoy it!
Though there are no lyrics in the music recorded here they are and there is meaning behind them that helped me choose the song.
1. What would you do if the kettle boiled over?
What would I do? Only fill it again.
And what would you do if the cow ate the clover?
What would I do only set it again.
2. The praties are dug and the frost is all over
Kitty lie over close to the wall.
How would you like to be married to a soldier?
Kitty lie over close to the wall.
3. The praties all boil and the herring’s a roasting
Kitty lie over close to the wall.
You to be drunk and me to be sober
Kitty lie over close to the wall.
4. What would you do if you married a soldier
what would you do would you follow his gun?
And what would you do if he drowned in the ocean
what would you do would you marry again?
