Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Queen Anne's Lace (David Olney)
How extraordinary. I had just typed 'Queen Anne's Lace' into the search bar ...
I only know the version from the Little Grey Rabbit books, which I used to sing to my daughter to a made-up tune, and which still comes to mind in the spring, when that blossom fills the hedgebanks.

Queen Anne's lace, Queen Anne's lace,
You'll find it growing all over the place
Queen Anne's lace, Queen Anne's lace,
You'll find it growing all over the place
She made it green, she made it white,
She made it of sunshine and flowers and light,
Queen Anne's lace, Queen Anne's lace,
You'll find it growing all over the place

Not at all bluegrass
