ViolinPractice Method Go Tell Aunt Rhody

French Folk Song

Smoothly and gracefully we move the bow,

Down and then up and then just let it flow.

Dance in three, dance in three, use a slow bow.

1 – 2 – 3, 1 – 2 – 3,

let your sound grow.

Use lots of bow as you go way down low.

The Blue Bells of Scotland

Oh where tell me where,

Where does your Highland Laddie dwell?

Oh where tell me where, Where does your Highland Laddie dwell?

He dwells in Bonnie Scotland,

Land of blooming sweet Blue Bells.

Oh where tell me where, Where does your Highland Laddie dwell?
