No one at his funeral even knew he wrote songs! R.I.P K.M.C 10/07/44 -11/07/12 "No more for me long hauls down to Borneo" I will raise a glass and sing it in remembrance. Vic |

It is amazing how this song has gone around the World. It was written by Ken for Vic so that he wouldn't scare the girls away by singing miserable Folk Songs I've heard it in Australia and U S A and people have been amazed that it is not "Traditional" and that it was not written by "such and such" a singer |
