Please excuse the delay in recognizing the efforts of Peace, Jim Dixon and especially Joe Offer.   I think this thread deserves a tune and I have been brushing up on my ABCs.   Thanks Joe for the lyrics transcription and the background information.
There is one slight correction to the lyrics. In the second stanza the word "hope" should replace "home".   "There's a hope and a memory in each summer heart."
Here's the ABC Notation:

X: 1
T: Under The Willows
C: Bob Franke
M: 4/4
L: 1/8
K: E
G A B e3/2 d e g3/2|e f3/2 e c B3/2 z/2||
B B3/2 e g b3/2 a g | g3/2 f e f z/2 ||
B a |a3/2 a g3/2 f e3/2 f3/2 | e c d3/2 ||
d c B | e g3/2 b3/2 e g f e | d e4 z2 z||
"Chorus"
G A B e3/2 d e g3/2|e f3/2 e c B3/2 z/2||
B B3/2 e g b3/2 a g | g3/2 f e f z/2 ||
B a |a3/2 a g3/2 f e3/2 f3/2 | e c d3/2 ||
d c B | e g3/2 b3/2 e g f e | d e4 z2 z||

The cadence is not quite a true copy.   Maybe someone could suggest editing the lengths of the notes?

Thanks again Joe Offer. It's always a pleasure when the "Pro" gets involved in a thread.    Take care, Ed
