Sanjay Sircar	Lyr Req: Little Fay Pretty Fay (Bellamy/Barnett) (7)	Lyr Req: Pretty fay, little fay, there is work t	13 Jan 13
There is a song in a pre-War UK collection of "Soprano Songs" or "Contralto Songs". The first stanza is: Pretty fay, little fay, there is work to be done come hither, come hither to me The banquet is ready but dew there is none You much fetch it wherever it be (repeat) Heed not the bumblebee, he never stings Battle the butterfly, rumple its wings Bee, beetle or butterfly... I am looking for the sheetmusic for this song, by itself, or preferably in such a collection (which might turn out to be the lost one in which I first came across it). Can anybody give me a bibliographical reference, please? Thank you, Sanjay Sircar
