I have the words as sent to me by Michael Cooney, when I work out how to cut and paste I will post them. It was a favorite of Lord Beaverbrook and the story is that be sang it to Molotov at the Yalta Conference. Molotov said that the song explained the failure of the capitalist system. Here is one verse: I'll sing you a song of the Jones Boys who lived on yonder hill, They were two jovial fellows and they used to run the mill, They ran the mill on the side of the hill and Liza she worked in the kiln, They worked all night and they worked all day, But they couldn't make the goshdarn sawmill pay. Then the Chorus. The Jones Boys ------
