Fresh from Fylde Folk Festival in Fleetwood - that's a lot of F's.
This is a nice welcome home thread. I haven't got a sound file of the tune, but I'll try and get round to it.
But I'd love to hear Frank Harte sing it - I sang it into his tape recorder a couple of years ago at the National Folk Festival in the bar.
I wish I could work out why it's funny. Hundreds of songs I've written, I imagine, and that's the one that hits the spot. I like to think it's the underlying theodicy of the text...
