topical tom, please when you start a new thread asking about a song, name the thread with a specific title, for example in this case "Lyr Req: I met a marine" or "Lyr Req: better in jungle green".

It makes it easier for people reading the thread title to decide whether to open the thread, i.e. whether they might know anything about it and may be able to help, and it is also easier when searching for a thread. If the title of the song is identified the moderator can change the title of the thread later. This is a site where information is stored, and it is used to search for information. Please make it easier for that information search process.

When there are multiple threads with generic titles like "forgotten song" or "searching for a song" and especially when more than one song lands in that thread it is very difficult to search easily and effectively through the extremely large collection here on Mudcat.
