OK, so there may be mixed opinion as to whether this constitutes a classic folk song, but I'd swear it has crossed the lips of a huge number of budding singer/guitarists in the last thirty odd years - and the tune is missing from the DT.

Anyone like to own up to having sung it?

Regards
John

Well, no, in answer to the opening post, I have not sung the song.
But I grew up with the Peter Paul & Mary recording,
on their very first album together.

I don't know if I'm making this up, but it seems to me that
I have heard a cover version with Latin rhythms,
something like Trini Lopez of happy memory.

Someone sang it at the Mudcat Worldwide Zoom singaround of 27/28 March 2023. It was probably me, but I'm away from my notebooks, so I can't check.
