Hi, Ho, Kafoozelum, fairest of Jerusalem, Hi, Ho, Kafooselum, daughter of the (and I never really heard, Oscan Brand kind of slurred it) - baha'i? Anyway, if that's the one you're thinking of, Mom has it on vinyl and I can transcribe the next time I visit.

Yes, saw the three versions in the DT.

None o' them's the one I remember.

Any more anybody knows?

Arthur, Have you tried the DT at the top of the page under" Harlot of Jerusalem"? there are 2 versions and they are close to what I have sung in Rugby clubs...

Anybody have the words to the old rowing/rugby club version of Kafoozalum commonly sung back in the fifties in England?

Tune was a version of "London Bridge is falling down" and I seem to recall hearing it played for Morris dancing many years ago.

Anybody help?
