In noticed in the database there is also a song called Brown Girl which has similar lyrics and has a tune. Ther version of The Banks of the Bann I am familiar with is sung to a tune I first knew as a hymn. "Lord of all Hopefulness, Lord of all Joy". The hymnbook says the tune is a traditional Irish tune called Slane. I could not find that in the database though I guess it may have been used for other folk songs. Anybody know?

Anyway if you need any held with this particular tune, post a message and I'll do what I can put it in ABC format.

Regards

Ian
