Wolfgang Hell Lyr Req: Night Ferry (Finbar Furey & Wizz Jones) (13) RE: LYR CHECK: Night Ferry missing one line... 27 Mar 98


now here's the wanted line from Jake Walton, "Keltische Folksongs", (this book doesn't seem to have an English language original, though all the lyrics are in English):

"but it didn't bother me, oh it hurt them"

I think it should be added that the original version of this song was written by Wizz Jones for his wife Sandy and has quite different lyrics. Finbar Furey has taken Jones' song (with credit, to the best of my knowledge) and has adapted the lyrics to such an extent that you may say it's a new song sharing only tune, structure and chorus.

I'll post the origibal lyrics later

Wolfgang
