Hey Ho, Nobody Home[edit | edit source]

Nursery rhyme – Text and melody: trad., arranged by Mjchael and Paniolo

The song probably originates from a theater performance end of the 16th century. So imagine a scene where men are walking home drunk from a pub. While the actors sing the catchy tune, the stagehands behind the curtain can rebuild the set.

Any other lyrics to this melody like the following German "Hey ho, hitch up the wagon" could therefore theoretically be a scene change from another play.
