And here are the tunes for the three version I posted above. (It may be coincidence but Ray Fisher sings her version in A the same as the DT version, though A mixolydian rather than A major; it is still possible that the DT version is just a not very good transcription of hers. Alternatively it might be a totally different source). In Ord, the tune for the song is actually written against the previous song and just referred to, so I had to make some choices on the assignment of notes to text. The tune is as written, but you might like to assign some of the words to different notes when there are choices.
