Not in Nottingham explained

"Not in Nottingham" is a song from Walt Disney's animated film Robin Hood written and performed by Roger Miller. The performance by Miller, with narration provided by the minstrel rooster Alan-a-Dale, takes place in the rain while the poor are imprisoned. It is one of three songs sung in the film by Miller, the others being "Whistle-Stop" and "Oo-De-Lally".

The song was covered by Los Lobos for their 2009 album Los Lobos Goes Disney.[1] Mumford & Sons also did a rendition of the song during their sessions with Daytrotter in 2012.[2] Watkins Family Hour has long played the song as part of its live repertoire and released a studio version on their 2015 debut album.
