Thread Name: Lyr Req: Orkney Lullaby (Allie Windwick?)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Orkney Lullaby (Allie Windwick?)
Allie Windwick wrote "Sleepie Laddie" around 1950. I am his daughter, and he wrote it for my brother who was a baby at the time. It was locally known as an Orkney Lullaby. Exquisite words and music! Enjoy, Thora.
