Stim.. thank you for your thoughts.. and yes was thinking about the "aspects of what makes a song folk" as to whether or not it could be classified as one. I also like your "If it was the sort of song that people who were not professional entertainers liked to play and sing, and if most people in a community knew without necessarily knowing where it came from; if it was just "out there", you might be able to call it a folk song, but just sounding "folkie" doesn't make something a folk song".. that is what my mind thinks when looking at a song folk or not and I could never get the words roght.. you did for me.. thank you.. may have to borrow afew of those words of yours in my discussions of folk music. :) Bobert.. thank you for your input as well.
