Helen, I've just realised I've mistyped you name! Please accept my grovelling and abject apology. I'll make sure I give proper credit when I sing it.

Kitty: I don't do balance, it spoils the jokes! I've sung this quite a few times to Morris men & women, and it always goes down well. I don't think they mind gentle fun being poked, and I can take it as well as dish it out.
As a matter of fact, my earliest memory of seeing Morris Dancers is of respect for people who'd go to such trouble to keep traditions alive.
