Thread Name: Lyr Req: Schooldays Over / Schooldays End (MacColl
Subject: Schoolday's over -education needed
The server isn't responding to do a DT search just now, bu I did one yesterday. Paul M, who started this thread, specified a song by Ewan MacColl. I searched [schoolday's over] and found a DIFFERENT song and I searched [Ewan MacColl] and found lots of different songs. I put two verses from my mildly muddled memory on this thread around 11 am yesterday and we're waitng for somebody else to finish the task. By the way, one verse should read "doing the pitman's job" and the other "doing the collier's job" (I wrote 'collier's' in both verses). One recording of this song was by Luke Kelly on the Dubliner's album "Revolution" ['m ALMOST sure of the album title}
