Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Stay in Your Own Backyard (Kennett/Udall)
My Mother used to sing this song to me when I was a little girl, it always made me cry as my Mother would sing it with such feeling.
This was the one song I always asked her to sing to me over and over.
I am a Canadian - my Mother's Mother sang it to her and she was from England.
My Mom now has dementia and I thought perhaps if I could sing this song to her she might remember who I am. Thank goodness for google because I don't know how I would have found the words otherwise, I could remember only a few. I am 64 now and my Mom is 88.
