Thread Name: Lyr Req: London Jack of All Trades
Subject: lyrics required;london jack of all trade
i'm looking for a song lyric done by Leon Rosselson back in the 70s,the 'London jack of all trades'.Starts'i'm a roving blade of many a trade/i've every trade and all trades/and if you want to know mt name/its london jack of all trades'.
    At this point my memory gives out!It was done on a Rosselson record with Roy Baily singing and Martin Carthy playing(not sure what Leon did)It's an adaptation of a Dublin song that works well,esp.if you know the lyrics.
                         ta very much,
                                       Sid.
