Robbie Tamson's Smiddie

Roud 936 [[1]]

This song can be found at pages 4 and 5 of English County Songs, 1893. edited by Lucy Broadwood and J A Fuller Maitland.

Copies of the tune and text can be found at www.folkinfo.org [[2]] together with a discussion on the piece.

The song was ascribed to Northumberland by the editors, although their footnotes to it state " Words and tune from Mrs T H Farrer, who learnt the song in Canada from Mr Richard Turner. A Scotch version is also in existence."
