NOTES IN GENERAL I seem to be always looking down, Well, I am, this song is not in my repertoire so I am reading the lyrics which I have stashed off camera. NOTES ON THIS SONG This song is a traditional Australian tune which has crossed over into the Canada and is associated with Newfoundland. According to Raymond Crooke’s YouTube channel: “It is not really an authentic Australian song as it originally came from the English Music Hall tradition.” See Raymond’s performance here … www …

























Good performance, Travis. Thanks for the video response and the detailed background information. I’m sure your version is more authentic as I think mine was originally from a songbook meant for young school children.
Thanks for taking the time to listen!
