Over deze songtekst:
Old King Cole is een oud Engels kinderliedje uit 1708.
Wie King Cole is, is nooit duidelijk geworden. Sommigen denken dat het Cumhall, een figuur uit de Ierse mythologie, is, maar bewijzen ontbreken. Er zijn meer mogelijkheden over de identiteit van King Cole, maar allen zijn onbewijsbaar.
Old King Cole was a merry old soul And a merry old soul was he He called for his pipe, and he called for his bowl And he called for his fiddlers three And every fiddler had a fine fiddle And a very fine fiddle had he Oh, there’s none so rare, as can compare With King Cole and his fiddlers three! Old Queen Cole was a merry old soul And a merry old soul was she She called for her horse, and she called for her foal And she called for her trumpeters three And every trumpeter had a fine trumpet And a very fine trumpet had she Oh, there’s none so rare, as can compare With Queen Cole and her trumpeters three! Old King Cole was a merry old soul And a merry old soul was he He called for his pipe, and he called for his bowl And he called for his fiddlers three And every fiddler had a fine fiddle And a very fine fiddle had he Oh, there’s none so rare, as can compare With King Cole and his fiddlers three! Oh, there’s none so rare, as can compare With King Cole and his fiddlers three!
