I got this email today:
> I was surfing the web trying to find a link to an old tune which I have known since childhood in the UK. Today,one of the movie channels is running the movie 'High Barbaree' > > This brought the old tune back to mind although I do not expect to hear it in the movie. > > The lyrics which I have never forgotten are "Fare thee well my dearie,my ship will put to sea when the warm winds are blowing on the high Barbaree" > > I punched these words into Google and up popped Mudcat site with a couple of readers discussing this tune.I think that the earliest writer was in 1998.
Anybody have more words to the writer's "High Barbaree" song? Bert?
