There is a modern folk rock song I really like called Melbourne Tram Song. The earliest recording of it I can find is by Australian folk punk band Catgut Mary (from 2008). Did they write it or is it an older song? It has been covered multiple times since by groups such as Rogue Scholars and Bartley's Folly. The chorus, for reference, is: Daughter of the Thames Won't you come out with me then We can breakfast in the city Coffee cigarettes and eggs And if the rain keeps coming down We'll find a good bar underground Where they serve up all the merry beers of England
