Thread Name: Rowing song with the name Nancy?
Subject: RE: Rowing song with the name Nancy?
Years ago I heard Gordon Bok sing a rowing song he'd written, and while it didn't have Nancy in it, it had 'lady' and 'Nancy' could easily be substituted. I don't know if he ever recorded it, but what I can remember goes like this: 5 5 3 4 5 5 4 3 No more talking high you oh 5 5 3 4 5 4 3 2 No more talking hey you oh 5 5 3 4 58 8 7 6 8 No more talking high you oh-o 5 3 1 3 2 2 1 Fare you well, my lady oh
No more walking ...
No more rowing...
I can't please you...
Guess I'll leave you...
and, I think I still love you... but perhaps that was my addition.
Thought it should go in here, anyway. Blessings, Barbara
