Talk:How Many Miles to Babylon?

Boston Town version
There is | a version where the destination is Boston (whether in the USA or the UK, I don't know), the distance is four score and ten miles, the last two lines of the verse are missing, and there's a second verse 'Open the gates and let me through / Toll first you pay / I have no gold, what shall I do? / Turn and go away.' The melody is played on a carillon | here, and it is used for the "Babylon" version | here. There's no provision in this melody for the 'If your heels be nimble' lines. Has a traditional melody ever been recorded that includes them? | This appears to be a modern composition. Hieronymus Illinensis (talk) 20:49, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
