JohnGalway 1,043 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 I remember this song, it was one of many we learned in primary school. For some reason it's always stuck with me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVW3yPCwOfU 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bosun11 537 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Ralph McTell wrote it and still does it best, one of the greatest song writers this country ever produced, worth checking out his version and other stuff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 (edited) Yeah a few people have done covers of that song, and John I also remember singing it in Assembly at school. After hearing that it reminded me of one of my Christy Moore favourites - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aivTgFJ_fKM Missing You.
