Most likely on an early 1950s R.E. programme called the Ballad Makers Saturday Night, anyone remember this one? A P.F.song I do remember from this programme is "Cuttin" The Corn in Creeslough" I must make an effort to aquire the works of P.F. in book form. Joe. |

Mick Bracken posted the lyrics in this thread. When Mick Bracken posts lyrics, they're usually right. The thread also has links to MIDIs for the melody. -Joe- |
