The music is basically the same as "Lord of the dance" (there have been threads about this in the past).... if you look at the lyrics I gave the links to there is probably a tune there.... it will say "click here to play" underneath the lyrics..... if not get back to us and we'll get you the tune...

And of course Sidney Carter used the same tune for "Lord of the Dance".

Cheers,

Thank you Alison...I would like my daughter to sing this for an audition for a chorus... not I will hunt for the music I think Judy Collins did it...

there are a few versions of it in the database.. if you go back to the thread page and type in "simple" in the "digitrad lyrics search box" you'll find some more...

I would like to find the name of the song that this line comes from...I remember it being sung by a solo female...the last few words are..."and it comes out right"

thanks Mary Lou
