My mother sang this all the time and I sang it to my children, grandchildren and now my great grandchildren and discuss the bullying lesson
Still makes me terry eyed

There are several other songs she also sang

The sheet music is available here if anyone is still around for this thread.   My father used to sing this song to me back in the 1940s and I found this site on the internet.

I am 64; my grandmother sang this song to me when I was very small. It made such an impact on me. But what puzzles me is that she lived in a rural community in south Australia. I am so glad I have finally found all the lyrics as I could only remember the chorus. Oh how I did adore my grandma and the fond memories of her singing to me on her lap.
