He was N: good enough to send me a recording of his playing of it, and he is N: happy for it to be used subject to the usual copyright conditions. N: Actually I put that bit in as he's not worried by copyright issues N: "unless the Disney Corporation try to use it". N: N: John has a friend whose house has an open door onto the attached N: smallholding. The feathered captives have free access to the house N: and often use it for incubation and hatching purposes. One day N: when arriving for a practice he met the lodger who was just N: leaving. "When you go in, watch where you tread" said the lodger, N: hence one of the names of the tune. There were ducks in the living N: room and duck poo on the floor and he "had to do a polka/jig to N: avoid it", hence the other name. The practice continued, with John N: playing his fiddle with a cockerel perched on his shoulder, "-big N: bugger with plus-fours". Carry these images with you as you N: contemplate the rhythm. % O:England A:Sussex Z:Chris Partington K:D F2G2 \ | "D"A2BA F2A2 | "A7"G2AG E2G2 | "D"F2D2 AFD2 | "G"B4 B4 \ | "D"A2BA F2A2 | "A7"G2AG E2G2 | "D"F2D2 "A7"^C2E2 | "D"D4 :| B2c2 \ | "G"d4{ed} B2G2 | d2D2 G2B2 | d4 {ed}"A7"c2B2 | "D"A4 F2G2 \ | "D"A2BA F2D2 | A2A,2 D2F2 | A2BA G2F2 | "A7"E4 |] B2c2 \ | "G"d4{ed} B2G2 | d2D2 G2B2 | d4 {ed}"A7"c2B2 | "D"A4 F2G2 \ | "D"A2BA F2A2 | "A7"G2AG E2G2 | "D"F2D2 "A7"^C2E2 | "D"D4 |] % polka/DarkGirlDressedinBlue_G.abc X: 4 P: the Dark Girl Dressed in Blue [G] R:polka D:John McKenna D:Frankie Gavin: Croch Suas E N:... nowadays known as Lewinsky's Polka" -- Henrik Norbeck N:... know around here as "The Lass with the Cigar" -- Philippe Varlet Z:id:hn-polka-34 M:2/4 L:1/8 K:G |: "G"Bd dg | "C"e/f/g "G"d>B | "C"ce "G"dB | "Am"eA "D7"c/B/A/G/ \ | "G"Bd dg | "C"e/f/g "G"d>B | "Am"ce "D7"d/e/d/c/ | "G"BG G2 :| |: "G"Bd d/e/g/a/ | ~b>g ag | "C"eg "G"dB | "Am"eA "D7"c/B/A/G/ \ | "G"Bd d/e/g/a/ | ~b>g ag | "C"eg "D7"d/e/d/c/ | "G"BG G2 :|
