...and, I guess some people thought I was looking for the Banks of Newfoundland... I was not! I found lots of versions of the song, but this is not the one. I only mentioned it because of a (very vague) similarity between a line from the Banks and the song in Treasure Island. Droop and quaver at the end of the verse - nothing like it in the Banks!
