Yeah Alan. I don't even know John Lawson--I blame my flu.Joe, I'll blame my flu for not checking too; however, it does seem to be a more "original" version. I was just glumly looking through the book when the song showed up and made my day. I thought I had to tell somebody! Anyway I looked at the notes and the tune is the same as "The Thing" just as Alison and Alan say.
