Ballad friends!!!
I must admit I know almost nothing about the humble ballad, but I want to teach ballads in my introduction to folklore class.
Does anyone have any recommendations for interesting or fun folklore ballads to show a bunch of first year students?

Now you say, you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on boy, cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You say you're lonely
You cried the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river baby
I cried a river over you

From my zine "by thy shape" about Queer bodies & folklore
Poem text reads:
Tam Lin was stolen frae the aipple tree (and pleasaunt is the fairy-land) for ripe was his flesh an' sweet his bluid and his shape-shifty like ony sand (and Janet's awa to Carterhaugh as fast as she can flie) (what they did I cannot tell the green leaves between do lie) His slippery skin is not his ain (an eerie tale tae tell) they'll use his rose-ripe body as a sacrifice (to pay a teind tae Hell) 'If I'm a prize let me be yours,' -- (o win me, win me, for your ain) they'll show her a' his shapes the esk, wolf, adder and hot-airn
Is a shape a thing entire -- o the esk and adder cannot fright her even as a bear it doesn't use its fangs every shape he takes she'll hauld him tighter -- (O cast your green kirtle ower me to keep me frae the rain) (an what they did I cannot tell the green leaves were in between)
Based on Tam Lin (Child 39)
Foot of page:
an eerie tale to tell -- Ay at the end of seven years - we pay a tiend to hell; I'm sae fair and fu o flesh - I'm feard it be mysel
