"Suffolk Miracle, can you tell me where that song comes from? A friend of mine sings a version... "

Without my lips even moving, other people have mentioned the recordings of George Spicer and Wally Pardon. There are others. It was recorded from George Edworthy and released on the tape Sing Up George. Also there is a recording of Sugar Bailey on Who's Going To Hold My Horse, collected by Neil Langham, who also published a recording of it on Comic Songs of the Stour Valley, but I cannot remember the name of the singer. Likewise there is a recording of it on the tape Gin Ale And Whiskey which was collected by the Dows in Lancashire. My version is likely to be a composite of all those!
