28 Jul 00 - 10:33 AM (#266562) Subject: Cavin Town ??? From: GUEST,mryan I am looking for some help with regard to a song that I heard in a local pub. I believe the title was Cavin Town or soemthing like that, but I am not certain. I do know that the singer mentioned the song was written by a man from Valdosta and won some type of folk music award in Ireland, which is somewhat ironic. If this is enough information for anyone to get me a clue, that would be great. If you also happen to know the lyrics, the writer's name, or where I might be able to find a recording of it, that would be very much appreciated. Thanks. |
