At the risk of repeating myself, as this is a British song it would be better to look in Kilgarriff's great catalogue, rather than Levy or American Memory and if you do so you will get the details of authorship, date, original singer etc quoted above. This thread has already provided a good half of the words. Sadly my collection of sheet music doesn't include this song. If it had,would it have been possible to put a scanned image on Mudcat(bearing in mind that I have limited computer skills) or would the whole thing have to be laboriously keyed in?
