T:The Three Little Drummers

N:Christmas song about "three drummers from Africa" coming to worship the Christ Child. Robin
N:Williamson, apparently, is the culprit for this tune coming to be known as "The Tenpenny Bit", a
N:similar but not identical tune in O'Neill's. This tune is also called "The Lilting Banshee" [MR].

T:The Muckin' o' Geordie's Byre
N:This tune illustrates the limitations of the "same tune" concept. It is clearly not the same tune as
N:the preceding, but it's close enough to confuse a player. This is the tune of a song in the Dorie di-
N:alect pf Scottish (in which, among other things, an "f" is often heard where English has "wh"; "I ken
N:fat it is," said a speaker, "but I dinna ken fat why ye'd spak it") about an underachieving individ-
N:ual named Geordie McIntyre and how the neighbors got together to destercorate his cattle barn. As
N:the saying goes, it took a village. Also listed as "I'd Be Delighted" in this collection's index.

N:Irish Folk Club. (Gaelic phrase) was one of his toasts, and that at least he got, in November 1985.

W:2. All through the night the crews have watched and wondered, tried to tell
W:Whether the day would break too cold to fly.
W:Decision to make to hold or try.
W:The ice grew round the pipes, the ocean churned in stormy hell,
W:Bit with the dawn the word is "Let them go" and wish them well.
W:Here's to the ship and crew--though none with malice damaged her,
W:They cleared her for launch against the judgement of the engineers,
W:Who had to change their hats under pressure from the managers
W:Who took the fatal gamble on the Challenger.
W:
W:3. The sun's been bright to melt the gantry's crust of icy rime;
W:Mission Control the countdown calmly tolls,
W:The candle's lit--she lifts, she rolls--
W:Threescore and thirteen seconds toward the azure heaven climbs--
W:What follows next will be replayed a hundred thousand times.
W:Here's to the ship and crew-- we watched the final blast expand--
W:And here's to McAuliffe who was called to take the last exam.
W:Her class was taught the truth that we all must face the best we can
W:But which is hardly ever on the lesson plan.
W:
W:4. Two ancient Irish foes meet on the cosmic testing ground:
W:One is the patron saint of engineers,
W:The other one names the law they fear;
W:And when the dice have come to rest the answer will be found:
W:Saint Patrick yields the point and Murphy takes this round.
W:Here's to the martyr ship and here's to her gallant crew,
W:To Scobee and to Resnik and to Smith and Onizuka too:
W:So may Saint Patrick welcome them, the souls of all these seven true
W:Who did the best and gave the last that humans do.

T:Sweet Sixteen
N:This tune comes directly from the Appalachian fiddle tradition. However, the melody and the title
N:root it in an Irish song, no doubt created for educational purposes, about a young woman of about
N:the mentioned age who makes a tryst with an older man but is caught and suffers the wrath of
N:parental units. The song has many variants; the story is usually told from the man's point of view.
N:Examples are "As I Roved Out" on the Clancy Brothers' "The Boys Won't Leave the Girls Alone"
N:and "Sixteen Come Next Sunday" on the Bothy Band's "Old Hag, You Have Killed Me." Note the
N:melodic similarities to the preceding tune and with No. 36.
