Unit 3. FolkSongs

A folk song is music that does not have a known composer and is passed from person to person by an oral (not written) tradition. Folk songs often change each time they are performed, so the words, melody, or even rhythm might be different depending on who sings the song. Folk songs are also usually performed by amateurs,

The lyrics of English folk songs can be about almbst any subject: love, death, a game, gossip, a place, or a holiday, to name just a few. Some folk songs, called ballads, tell long stories, while others are shorter, nonsense songs that make people laugh. Before radio and television, nearly everyone sang folk songs for entertainment, maybe at night in the kitchen after a long day's work or at celebrations with family and friends. By the 1920s, most people in England had a gramophone, an early type of record player, to listen to folk songs and other recorded music.

You Arc My Sunshine

You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are grey You'll never know dear How much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away.

And I hung my head and cried.
