Steve Thankyou for your help, I tried to go on the site you mentioned (Roud index) and I don't know to get to the words. Being old dosen't help me. I also received a song from Mick pearce and some of the words in it were close but the name Baltimore was not there and Spanish ship was not there also. Mabe this song that dad sang was a version of both of them. I would know if I could get on the site you spoke of and could read the words. Thanks so much for your help and a thankyou to Mick also
