Subject: RE: Lyr req: The Tinker Maid -- sung by Rick Lee
Thanks, Martin. I sang it last Tuesday at the pub, and it was very quiet for a while after I finished, which, to my mind, means they listened. The song cast its spell. I fell over a couple words (I seem to think it should be "singing" rather than "springing" earth, at least that's what my mouth says when it comes around) and I seem to want to say "and lips were red" rather than "wan, which blows the rhyme. PRACTICE, PRACTICE. Thank you ever so much for your help. Blessings, Barbara
