Thread Name: Lyr Req: A Lift on the Way (Edwin Waugh)
Subject: Edwin Waugh's 'A Lift on the Way'

Has anyone the lyrics and a tune setting to Edwin Waugh's poem/song. I can't find it on Mudcat or YouTube

I dimly remember The Oldham Tinkers or Harry Boardman singing it somewhere.

EW was born in Toad Lane , Rochdale , where the Co-Op in England was founded and many of his writings express his early brand of socialism and environmentalism.
