ahhhhhh (covering my face with my extra wing in humiliation)
Thanks Norreen, for helping me save face.
I did a search for "Matty" not "Mattie." (It didn't occur to me to try an alternative spelling....duhh).
I don't have any alternative versions for you Joe.
I had actually come to the DT looking for the lyrics just before "Hesperis" posted the "Baddy" thread and thought it was an amazing coincidence when I saw that thread. I found the lyrics at a "Fairport Convention" site.
