One of my favourites is 'The Female Rambling Sailor' which was collected from a wonderful singer Catherine Peaty in Victoria It on the Australian Folk Songs website at http://folkstream.com/102.html Another great traditional singer Sally Sloane gave us The Wee One ... is it a woman's song or a man's ... like many folksongs the voice the story is told in doesn't allow us to say for sure. I think one of the best recorded versions of Lawson's 'Do You Think That I Do Not Know' is Sonia Bennett's on the Songs of Chris Kempster CD see http://chriskempster.net/ it was written as autobiographical by Lawson but certainly the woman alluded to is a big part of the story!
