Can you suggest any songs associated with the month of July ie: (A) Any songs with July in the title (B) Any songs with a July date given in the lyrics (C) Any songs referencing an event that is known to have occurred in July even if the lyrics do not actually say so.
It would be very helpful to have links to performances of the songs and also more sources of information about them.


INDEX OF JULY SONGS
Below is an index of the Julysongs listed in Alphabetical order. The titles are blue click links which will take you to the area in thread where you will be able to see most of the posts for that title. I shall sometimes rearrange “ late” posts to group them with the appropriate main area of discussion so that they are not overlooked. When I add to someone’s post I make this clear by doing so beneath an orange line like the one below.

CAPTAIN WARD AND THE RAINBOW

It was on the first of July we sailed from the west,
Loaded with silks and satins a cargo of the best.


Mainly Norfolk Info:    
https://mainlynorfolk.info/peter.bellamy/songs/wardt

Come all you jolly mariners that like to take a dram,
Well, I'll tell you of a robber who o'er the seas did come.
And he sent a letter to his king on the eleventh of July,
To see if he would accept of him for his jovial company.
