274. The Old Maid's Song (Traditional American)
voir la vidéoAlthough generally considered an American song, this appears to date back to at least 1636, when it appeared in England as a broadside ballad. In some early versions the old maid finally gets married to a chimney sweep ("The Chimney Sweeper's Wedding" or "The Black Chimney Sweeper") There are also Irish variations, such as "Old Maid in the Garret". This version seems to have been popularised mainly by Pete Seeger. [ go to Youtube.com ]
