Hi all,

Just joined you at the Mudcat Cafe and wondered if anyone could help with a song from my childhood.

I had a wonderful teacher during the late sixties (originally from Singapore) who taught us lots of old British folk songs, which we'd sing while he played the piano.

I can remember some lyrics and the tune from one paricular song, but can't find it anywhere. It goes;

I walk along the roads and highways,
Singing as I swing along,
Through all the country lanes and byways,
What is life without a happy song?

Chorus:
Up with the dawn, welcome to the morn,
Day by day goes by,
Monarch for the day of all that I survey,
I'm king of the road am I.

Can anyone help?
