Never heard the Jolly Beggarmen's version of "Her father didn't like me anyway", but I suspect it is a crass version.

Before you judge the song try to listen to a very early recording by Findar and Eddie Furey, before they became "The Furey Brothers and Davey Arthur".

Maybe it is to do with what was going on in my life at that time, but it remains as one of my all time classics, although I never could my hands on a get a recording.

I anyone has the words, I would be grateful

The coat she wore still lies upon the bed
That book I gave her that she never read

. . . . .

. . . . .
She left without a single word to say
Her father didn't like me anyway.
