This song, made famous by Luke Kelly & The Dubliners, though written by Ewan MacColl (
father of the late singer/songwriter Kirsty MacColl) has been rattling around in my head for quite a while now.
It brings to mind images and thoughts of when my Da had worked in England in the 1950's.
I tried singing it with guitar, and with piano, but I was never happy with it.
Tonight I tried it without music, and here's the result.
(
I've never sung this in public, or privately, to anyone!)
