[Intro]
The crowd got loud
(Bring on the Roud)
[Verse 1]
Whisper down the lane
Is never quite the same
A little day by day
Changes ‘long the way
[Bridge]
The crowd got loud
(Bring on the Roud)
[Chorus]
Navigation
(Through variation)
Lyric and music
(Quick!)
[Bridge]
Play another song
(So we can sing along)
[Verse 2]
A variant deviates
Observant hips gyrate
Improvisational
Spawns inspirational
(And on and on)
[Bridge]
The crowd got loud
(Bring on the Roud)
[Chorus]
Navigation
(Through variation)
Lyric and music
(Quick!)
[Bridge]
Play another song
(So we can sing along)
The crowd got loud
(Bring on the Roud)
[Chorus]
Navigation
(Through variation)
Lyric and music
(Quick!)
ABOUT THE SONG
The Roud Folk Song Index is a database of around 250,000 references to nearly 25,000 songs collected from oral tradition in the English language from all over the world. The primary function of the Roud Folk Song Index is as a research aid correlating versions of traditional English-language folk song lyrics independently documented over past centuries by many different collectors across (especially) the UK and North America. It is possible by searching the database—for example by title, first line(s), or subject matter (or a combination of any of a dozen fields)—to locate many of the variants of a particular song. Comprehensive details of those songs are then available, including details of the original collected source, and a reference to where to find the text (and possibly music) of the song within a published volume in the EFDSS archive.
From the “Aardvark” sessions. Found only on the Unplugged Underground Vol. XXV collection.
