Biografía:
Matt McGinn era uno de los canautores más importante de la musica folk de los años 1960s y 1970s. Nacido al lado de el famoso mercadillo "The Barras" en Glasgow, Escocia en 1928, la vida de Matt hubiera seguido los pasos tipicos de muchos chicos pobres de su tiempo; robos y crimenes de poca monta, si no fuera que, despues de ser internado durante dos años por robar, un amigo le presentó al mundo de la politica de la izquierda, y la vida de Matt cambió.

Okay this is a beautiful lullaby that is thought to be written by Matt McGinn.
I've never heard a recording of this but I picked it up at a session in southern
Scotland, and completely fell in love with the song.
This is just how I play it, start singing on a G.
I pick it all the way through, as the song naturally lends itself to a gentle accompaniment.
Coorie [C] doon, Coorie doon, Coorie [F] Doon, my darling,
[G] Coorie doon the [C] day.
Coorie [C] doon, Coorie doon, Coorie [F] Doon, my darling,
[G] Coorie doon the [C] day.
Lie [C] doon, my dear, and [F] in your ear,
To [C] help you close your [G] eye,
I'll [Am] sing a song, a [F] slumber [Am] song,
A [G] miner's lulla [C] by.
Your daddy's doon the mine, my darling,
Doon in the Curbly Main,
Your daddy's howkin' coal, my darling,
For his ain wee wean.
There's darkness doon the mine my darling,
Darkness, dust and damp,
But we must have oor heat, oor light,
Oor fire and our lamp.
Your daddy coories doon, my darling,
Doon in a three foot seam,
So you can coorie doon my darling,
Coorie doon and dream.
Enjoy!
