Subject: Lyr Req: The Fireman's Growl
Does anyone have the lyrics to this song? I've encountered it as sung by Tony Rose, on the Broadside Records LP 'Steam Ballads' (1977).


The sleeve notes report that '...'The Fireman's Growl' was found by Karl Dallas in the Railway Gazette...The verses were tuneless and anonymous though Dallas suggests 'Castles in the Air' as a suitable melody.'

Many thanks in advance!
