Older schtuff

This is an older poem, it's got rhythm to it, and I had music for it at one point.

EDIT: it's not displaying quite properly but it's all there.


The River Town

down down to the river folk town
where it's up-side-in and in-side-down
it's where they live and where we drown
down down in river folk town

well a bonnie young lass went out to the bank
and in a thick fancy dress she went an' sank
she sank on down to the murkiest depths
to where she drew no more her breaths
well the river folk sent her lover a note
through a net to his fishin boat
well the note did say an say it well
“Stay away from our river or you'll go to hell!”

down down to the river folk town
where it's up-side-in and in-side-down
it's where they live and where we drown
down down in river folk town
