I swear I've seen or heard the song, but can't find it now. I wanted to search the Levy Sheet Music Collection for it, but Levy's down right now. Maybe one of our Esteemed Colleagues here will remember it. You've come to the right place, Fiona. Somebody here must know it. -Joe Offer- |

I'll check for the words in main memory and backing store if nobody else gets there first. A singer called Sean Dunphy (I think he is in Canada now) recorded it, if memory serves me right. Paddy
