While shepherds watched their flocks by night

[tdhwilkinson]

"When I were just a lad", growing up in Leeds, we regularly used to sing While Shepherds to Ilkley Moor. There i'n't nowt like a classic! This version's way too flowery - the shepherds were down-to-earth working blokes, after all.

@tdhwilkinson flowery because I was attempting to fit as many versions in as possible (not just Ilkley Moor). Just a bit of fun after all :-)

Growing up in Leeds, we used to regularly sing it to this tune - that said, this version is veeeeeeeery slooooow. Speed it up a bit lads!

I'd put money on the inn-keeper in Bethlehem being a Yorkshireman, which could explain this.
