I'm trying to track down the writer/ original singers of the classic "what did the deep sea say?"
Memory, which often does not serve, says it's The Blue Sky Boys.
Also, was it released in the 1950's?

I've heard Sara Grey sing this one a few years ago. If you check out her CD's you may find the song's author - I know it's a US Civil War song so maybe it Trad?? Good luck.
