The Jolly Rogues Of Lynn oder auch,In Good King Arthur's Days.
Das Lied wird Anfang des 19 Jahrhunderts zum ersten Mal als Text in einem Liederbuch gefunden.
Text:
In good King Arthur's days,
when we served under the king,
Lived a miller and a weaver and a little taylor
Three jolly rogues of Lynn.
Now the miller he stole corn
and The weaver he stole yarn
and the little taylor he stole broadcloth
for to keep those three rogues warm.
Now the miller was drowned in his dam
and the weaver was hanged in his yarn
and the devil put his claw on the little taylor
with his broadcloth under his arm.
Now the miller still drowns in his dam
and the weaver still hangs in his yarn
and the little taylor he skips through hell
with the broadcloth under his arm.
