Summer's come and gone and winter's coming on"... Anyone know what I'm talking about because I sure don't.:~) Thanks Neil |

16 Apr 05 - 02:33 AM (#1462757) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Bill Monroe(?) song From: JohnInKansas Bill Monroe Songbook. might be of interest. The songbook downloads as a 400 KB .pdf file. It's lyrics only but most of the tunes are well known. (The actual download target is at Monroe Book) Warning: this "book" seems to be in a different place every time I look for it, and doesn't consistently show on Googles for Monroe. It usually pops up if you search for "Good to Blue" and/or "Hikaru." I'd suggest saving the .pdf if you get lucky and find it before it moves again. John |

In the Songbook (thanks, John, I copied it) there are mis-spellings. In the same song, same verse, sheriff is spelled 'sherill.' There are others, but they aren't serious (this is a Japanese effort). |
