Subject: RE: Favorite Lullabyes
One of my singing buddies figured out the the words of E. Lear's poem The Owl and the Pussycat perfectly fit the melody of Adieu Sweet Lovely Nancy. Instant, sweet lullaby/love song. His kids love it, and it's become one of our most requested songs. I sang it to my bride at our wedding reception.

As a child, my lullaby was snoring of the big old bloodhound who raised me. Dave
