Subject: RE: How do we know which is genuine?
Where did I say it wasn't a folk song, Al? It obviously has gone through at least 2 periods of being a folk song, 3 if you count the wider sense of 'Folk'. As for the 'buggering about' whether it was folk or not would be based on who was doing the buggering about and which meaning of 'folk' you were using.
