GUEST,enamel spout	Lyr Add: Casabianca: boy stood on the burning deck (124* d)	RE: Lyr Add: Casabianca: boy stood on the burning deck	20 Feb 09
I looked this string up since my mum(90) remembers some of the verse and wants to find the full version. The boy stood on the burning deck, He stood upon his head, Because his arms and legs were off, So he waved his arms and said.......(or possibly "instead"....) She then has forgotten the rest but knows it was a parody of many poems. It apparently ends "For I'm to be Queen of the May, mother, I'm to be Queen of the May." She thinks the "Village Blacksmith, a mighty man was he" appears in it it as well. Any offers?
