Subject: Lyr Add: BREAD AND FISHES (Alan Bell)^^^
Here are the words to a song I got from a record (can't remember where or when) a long time ago. Maybe it's the one you're looking for.

THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS

As I was a-walkin' one morning in spring
I met with some travellers in an old country lane
One was an old man, the second a maid
And the third was a young boy who smiled as he said
With the wind in the willows and the birds in the sky
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
To share on our journey with all of mankind

I asked them to tell me their name and their place
That I might remember their kindness and grace
My name is Joseph, this is Mary, my wife
And this is our young son, who is our delight

Change last two lines of chorus:
We travelled the whole world by land and by sea
To tell all the people how they can be free

So sadly I left them in that old country lane
For I knew that I never would see them again
One was an old man, the second a maid
And the third was young Jesus who smiled as he said

Regards,
radriano
