This popular folk song from Yorkshire is sung in the Yorkshire dialect, and is considered the unofficial anthem of Yorkshire. It's jokey sort of song about a boy courting his beloved on Ilkey moor. He's not wearing a hat and she chides him saying he'll die of the cold winds up on the Moor.
Read the lyrics below to see what happens to him !
