You'll find them on an old thread:  LYR REQ: The Yew Tree.  Allow me to recommend to you the new "Digitrad and Forum" search facility on the main Forum page, which makes -sometimes!- light work of finding things like this.

Hey, Thanks, Malcolm for linking to that thread. And thanks especially to Hoolet for requesting this song, been wondering about it myself.

On a slightly different note, does anyone know where to find any of Joe Corrie's lyrics and other works?

Amergin, I once found a small volume of Joe's plays and poems. I can't look up the details just now. All I have myself are the four songs the Battlefield Band has sung - I Am the Common Man, Miners' Wives, Island Earth No More, Image of God. I haven't checked whether they are in the DT, but if they're not and you want them, send me a message. - Susanne
