*Two verses of a Harvest Home song, sung in Notts.:
Mr he is a good man
in letting us ride on his harvest dam
Well mown, well sown
We've got our harvest home at last,
Never thrown over nor yet stuck fast,
We've got our harvest home at last,
Hip, Hip hooray.
Mr he is a good man
For letting us ride in his harvest dam,
He gives us beer, he gives us ale,
I hope his heart will never fail,
God bless these horses that trail us
They've had many a weary bone
They've torn their cloathes rent their skin
All for to get this harvest in.
Hip, Hip hooray.
It is possible that this is a copy of the Harvest Home song in
the E.L.Guilford Collection, Ref.M/9910/8, that may come from
Laxton, Notts. (See TD00796).
