It was very frustrating to sing only hummmmmmmmm or a kind of noise in place of the words that i missed. Thank you again. Did you find them in a precise place or did you write them yourself?

There is quite a good Paxton website The Music of Tom Paxton , but it didn't have the lyrics to this song. Glad to have been of help. Au revoir Alan |
