All evidence seems to point to it being very old Scottish.And it’s "whither" meaning "where to" - not wither, as in shrivel up!Correction: the tune I know for the nursery rhyme version of "Old Woman Tossed up in a Blanket" is more like the tune for "Lilibulero".If you aren’t a member of The Session yet, you can The Chieftains are a Grammy winning Irish musical group founded in 1962 (Dublin, Ireland), known for performing and popularizing Irish

Do you know the lyrics for this track?
I was very surprised to hear it on a Chieftans CD that my wife bought me for Christmas… I had no idea it was Irish… I always considered it an old-time American tune.This tune is used in the movie ‘Master and Commander’, sort of stuck on the front of a set.

played by real trad musos, on screen, as a house ceili.Yeah - I saw that movie Will, wasnt it joannie maddens dad in it or something?
I could be wrong, or maybe Michael Rooney was mistaken.The other trad tune in the movie (Master and Commander) comes while the credits are rolling, and it’s the Humours of Trim, which is already posted in the archives here under the title, The Rolling Waves.Hello people — this is my first post here, but I’ve followed the threads a while so here ‘goes. Where’s my brain when I need it?
