Subject: What am I doing wrong?
I apologize to Mudcaters. I was trying to get lyrics to "This Little Light of Mine." Then something happened and it got posted several times but with no message. Sorry! My dilemma, I was listening to The Prairie Home Companion and they closed with this song. Like many, they used verses that I had not heard before but liked. I tried the Mudcat database and they had verses I had never heard before either but didn't fit the tune as I know it. I checked with the Folksinger's Wordbook and they had the same verses as Mudcat. All the choruses were the same however. The verses I know are: All around the room;' All over the whole wide world; (from the Prairie Home Companion) Don't let Satin whoop it up. What is the explanation for what happened to my former posts? Are there other verses to this song? Thanks
