Thread Name: ADD: The River Lea
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The River Lea / Go to Sea No More
"Go to Sea No More" is a phrase found in more than one song. I first thought of the Stan Rogers song, which turns out to have the title "The Jeannie C," and it's a different song entirely.
The next one I thought of ends with "get married instead, spend all night in bed, and go to sea no more." (in DT - click)
But the song mentioned in this thread isn't familiar to me. Can somebody point me toward a recording?
I found a recording by Dan Milner [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJ2wAFdGBIw] - is that the usual melody for this song?
I'm sure it's not the "River Lea" by Adele: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxRQlvmH-Uk
