Rich,
I agree with Tom. This is one of the most traditional tunes I grew up with. Isn't one of CDSS' objectives to promote and continue TRADITIONAL song...

I say leave it alone.

Hello folks,

I have been calling singing squares for years, and there is one I love by Dick Leger titled Billy Boy.  The tag line that is sung during the Promenade is "She's a young thing, that cannot leave her mother."

Here is a link to a version of the full song, not within a square.

My question is, is this song appropriate for the contra dance crowd with the tag line above?  (The tag line is the only line that is sung.)

Any Thoughts?
