Subject: 'I don't mind the rain & cold...'
Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa. Heard a song last Sept driving near Univ of Delaware that has stuck in my head ever since. Sung by a guy with a really deep gravel voice, the only refrain that I remember has him as a seafaring salty dog, and goes "I don't mind the rain and cold, I just can't stand the growin' old". Other verses echo similar sorts of sentiments, though I can't recall the exact lyrics. I know that this isn't much of a thread to grab onto, but any suggestions as to the song title or other details would be much appreciated. Many thanks.
