JEHill	Origins: English Country Garden (68* d)	RE: English Country Garden Lyrics	04 Jun 98
I think you will find that the lyrics are not English at all. They reflect an American rose-tinted view of what England must be like. There are still a large nunmer on the other side of the pond that think we still all live in thatched-roofed cottages with roses around the door. I guess it would be nice if we did but its not like that here at all alas. I don't believe you will find these lyrics before the Jimmie Rodgers record, who it must be stressed is an American pop/c&w singer and is still around. Regards John
