Gaffer	Lyr ADD: Johnny Sands (17)	RE: Lyr Req: Johnny Sands	04 May 02
Johnny Sands he was a good old man But he's married to Betsy Haig She brought him land, she brought him gold But she proved him a terrible plague Both night and morn she'd curse and moan She's full of caprice and whim 'Til he decides he's tired of life As she is tired of him Pretty much the same as the Coppers from there on in, this version is what I recall from tat collected a bit further West by Hammond or Gardiner, and if I find my books I can be a touch more precise! One of the few good bondage songs in the tradition - or do all marriage songs count?
