No. 67 Darby Jig
This absurd little rhyme was formerly used to accompany an animated dance, in which the arms were placed behind the waist, and the hands rested on the hips, with alternate motion.
Darby, darby, jig, jig, jig,
I’ve been to bed with a big, big wig!
I went to France to learn to dance—
Darby, darby, jig, jig, jig!
