GUEST,Jeanie Mertens Origins: I Found a Horseshoe (16) RE: Origins: I Found a Horseshoe 01 Jul 14


Hi Joe,

My dad sang this song to me and my sisters and brothers when we were little children. He was a fireman for the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad in the 1950s and 1960s. He only knew the first five lines and a word or two were different, but this is the song he sang to us. We never knew the rest of the song, and have asked family members if they knew it and no one ever seemed to know the song, or had heard of it. I have been looking on line for years and years to find the lyrics. I was moved to tears when I found this link and my father's song that I have been searching for. Thank you from the bottom of my heart on behalf of myself and my family. We are grateful to you for putting the song online. May God Bless you abundantly,

Sincerely,
Jeanie Mertens Wisconsin
