One of the best-known Irish tunes of all time. It has been around since at least the early days of the 17th century, when it was the tune of an Irish nursery song. It was used later on that century as a marching song by soldiers, and also as a tune for political songs in the 17th and 18th centuries. Its attribution to the English composer Henry Purcell, who published 'Lillibullero' in his compilation 'Music’s Handmaid' of 1689 as a 'new Irish tune', is doubtful. Purcell probably hijacked the tune as his own - common practice in the musical world of that time.

Lisette melendez cd. In later years the BBC has used Lillibullero as its signature tune for its World Service broadcasts. Not a bad lineage for a tune that’s 4 centuries old! Although 'Lillibullero' doesn’t occur in most ITM tune compilations I have found it in a New England fiddler’s tunebook published some years ago. The spelling of the tune’s name varies (I wouldn’t call them 'other names'). Common variants are 'Lillburlero' and 'Lilliburilero'.

Only offensive if you’ve that sort of mind!!!: My THING is my own (Verses 1,2,5,6,7,9,12 of 12) I a tender young Maid have been courted by many, Of all sorts and Trades as ever was any: A spruce Haberdasher first spake me fair, But I would have nothing to do with Small ware. Chorus: MY Thing is my Own, and I’ll keep it so still, Yet other young Lasses may do what they will, MY Thing is my Own, and I’ll keep it so still, Yet other young Lasses may do what they will. A sweet scented Courtier did give me a Kiss, And promis’d me Mountains if I would be his, But I’ll not believe him, for it is too true, Some Courtiers do promise much more than they do. My thing is my own A Master of Musick came with an intent, To give me a Lesson on my Instrument, I thank’d him for nothing, but bid him be gone, For my little Fiddle should not be plaid on.

My thing is my own An Usurer came with abundance of Cash, But I had no mind to come under his Lash, He profer’d me Jewels, and a great store of Gold, But I would not Mortgage my little Free-hold. My thing is my own A blunt Lieutenant surpriz’d my Placket [nb A pocket or slit] And fiercely began to rifle and sack it, I mustered my Spirits up and became bold, And fore’d my Lieutenant to quit his strong hold. My thing is my own A fine dapper Taylor, with a Yard in his Hand, Did prefer his Service to be at Command, He talke’d of a slit I had above Knee, But I’ll have no Taylors to stitch it for me. My thing is my own Now here I could reckon a hundred and more, Besides all the Gamesters recited before, That made their addresses in hopes of a snap But as young as I was I understood Trap, My thing is my own, and I’ll keep it so still, Until I be Marryed, say Men what they will, My thing is my own, and I’ll keep it so still, Until I be Marryed, say Men what they will.

At a session at the Plume of Feathers in Bristol a couple of days ago a singer sang this tune with the lyrics of the traditional song 'Nottingham Ale' - words which look as if they are as old as the tune Lillibullero itself. It isn’t just that words can be offensive, often they are also crafted to cause offense. Historian Norman Davies quotes 9 verses of the version that follows in Appendix 34 of his 1999 1,078pp capsulization 'The Isles'. He adds that the music has been attributed to Henry Purcell(1659-1695) > (Lyrics pasted from: ) Posted by 8 years ago.
