I may be butting in on your thread but I had to let you know I too, have been looking for this song for the last 40 years. My family moved to Chicago when I was 12 years old in 1952 and I was in the 7th grade. My teacher taught it to the class and the melody has been in my head every since. I remembered just a couple of lines of the first verse and sang them over and over. I have never been able to find the music to the song. I think I would give the big toe off my left foot for that piece of sheet music. I would like to record it for myself and anyone else that might want a copy. If you can help please contact me.
