Hi there--

This song came south with a Maine sea captain, and has been kicking around the fairs for a good while now, acquiring new verses and generally seating itself in the folk tradition. Bob should be proud. I'd just kill to find all the words.

Chorus"

Some come to work while others do play
Some come at evening to pass time away
Some come to laugh their voices to ring
But as for me I come for to sing

Anyone? It's unfindable on the Net.

It's findable here on Mudcat in this thread - the song is most often associated with Bob "Living Legend" Gibson who sang it often, and with the Limeliters, who medlified it with "There's a Meetin' Here Tonight."
