Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Fireman's Growl
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Fireman's Growl
Just had another listen to Bilston. He uses the 'When I was a little boy' tune beloved of McColl and used in the #radio Ballads. Bilston modelled his songwriting upon McColl. The Fireman's lament does have a couple of different verses to Dallas.
