- The Cobbler & the Tinker
(Tapping your foot sing)
Merry we are and merry we'll be
Said the Cobbler to the Tinker
Cobbler Tin take care
Said the Cobbler to the tinker
You'll sing Cobb and you'll sing leir
Youll sing tin and youll take care
Of the cobler and the tinker
You'll sing black and you'll sing blue
youll sing starch and you'll sing too
Said the cobbler and the tinker
(Start at Cobbleir again) Cob leir tin take care etc;
youd answer at "cob" or you go down and get a blow.Etne Conway got this from Tom McKeon, Ballivor. He is about seventy.
