Lyr Req: Little Potato & Alleluia

Subject: Lyric: Little Potato & Alleluia
From: Jesberger

I am looking for two lyrics,

The first is for a song that starts

"You're my little potato; You're my little Potato;
You're my little potato; You come from underground;

The second is an alleluia that's on the John McCutcheon/Malcolm Dalglish recording Titled Banish misfortune. Its a one line lyric, but try as I might, I just can't make out the last words. Please help.

Jack

I think Little Potato was written by Pete Sutherland, if that helps. It's on one of his recordings, possibly when he was part of Metamora with Dalglish and Larson.

The only "alleluia" song I've heard McCutcheon sing is "Alleluia, The Great Storm Is Over," by Bob Franke. Check the database under "Storm" and see if that's the one. Otherwise, check McCutcheon's Web site:
