Thread Name: Other parting songs?
Subject: RE: Other parting songs?
Thanks for the lyrics to All the Good Times - the version I'm familiar with (there are other versions on the web). However, I think the "hunter has hung up his horn" rather than hallowed it - I think hung up makes more sense.

The best (imho) parting song is Parting Song by Dave Webber. The chorus goes:
So sing together one and all,
And raise a glass of wine.
Here's hoping we shall meet again,
Along the road of time.

It's in Dave's songbook "Summer Dusk on Country Lanes" pub. M.J. O'Connor, Lyngham House, St Ervan, Wadebridge, Cornwall PL27 7RT UK.   ISBN: 0 9528225 4 7. It's recorded by Dave and Anni (Fentiman) on Together Solo Dragon Records DRGN931 CD and cassette.
