Not that Max ever seems to mind, but there's some wasted space and effort here. First, this song's in the DT - which is why it's always worth looking there before starting a thread. Second, Giac pointed this out, and if subsequent posters had checked his link they could have posted only the bits in their versions that depart from the DT version, rather than re-keying the whole song.

Rasta, you asked about the tune, too, which is indeed a fine one. And that, as far as I can see, is not in the DT. I could send this to you - or to the Cat for that matter - as an image (gif, jpeg or whatever) if that's any use, but I've not yet mastered ABC or any other software for writing musical notation. Anyway, say if you still need tune, and I'll bite this bullet one way or the other.
