Just as a matter of interest, here in Australia we have a song called "A Pub With No Beer" written by Gordon Parsons around a poem by Dan Sheahan and recorded by Slim Dusty. It made it onto the charts in a lot of countries and sold millions of records and then was the subject of a law suit that decided that the tune was a variant of Beautiful Dreamer and the royalties were paid to the Foster estate. If you don't like the words to beautiful dreamer (I do, actually) you could always find this one in the database.
