can't seem to search database and oldtimers is driving me nuts

there is a fine maritime song with the refrain: oh where would they be, if it weren't for the money that comes from the sea

what the heck is the song's title?!? thanks for any help there

Try using Google Advanced Search with http://mudcat.org as the site searched. If you just put mudcat.org without the full http URL it automatically adds a www and messes up the search.

many thanks, cnd...

my old Fleetwood CD died and I haven't found a replacement

when I try the search I get a big error message

Mike loves it and added his own little verse at the end about maritime museums etc... referring to several decades of volunteering at
sea music festivals at Mystic Seaport lol
