John Martyn - Sing A Song Of Summer Lyrics
If you go looking down in the summer
To the village at the bottom of the well
You'll find nice things and butterflies' wings
And policemen's hats as well
The girlies there won't hurt you
There's cats and dogs and bats and frogs
And little pink sugar mice
So come along and sing of summer
Sing of summer coming on
Come along and sing of summer
Summer's coming on
Summer's coming on
And won't you wear your silly trousers
To come home running down the road
Follow the Cheshire cat
Your friends they will all be there
And they will all be taking tea
So come on laughing down the road
Come on follow me
Come along and sing of summer
Sing of summer coming on
Come along and sing of summer
Summer's coming on
Summer's coming on
Won't you leave behind your city shoes
And lose your bowler hat
Forget about your winter woes
And wipe your eyes on the mat
Won't you leave your green wallpaper
And the clock upon the wall
And lock your doors up one by one
Come running down the hall
Come along and sing of summer
Sing of summer coming on
Come along and sing of summer
Summer's coming on
Summer's coming on
And if you go looking down in the summer
To the village at the bottom of the well
You'll find nice things and butterflies' wings
And policemen's hats as well
The ladies there won't hurt
Cos they're all so very nice
There's cats and dogs and bats and frogs
And little pink sugar mice
So come along and sing of summer
Sing of summer coming on
Come along and sing of summer
Summer's coming on
Summer's coming on
Summer is a coming on

Also Stefan Grossmann, Duck Baker and Leo Kottke are very very good
I've always been infatuated by his 'clawhammer pickin' on this album....like some of Richard thompson's stuff - not to mention Roy Harper & OF COURSE :Bert Jansch ,John Renbourn!!!Can any of ya' turn me onto some other 'folk heroes'????Of course I know Tim Buckley ..and Nick Drake..Who else??!creashonrebel
Martin Carthy, The Watersons, Sandy Denny
The Reverend Gary Davis - who some of these British players listened to and learned from. Also Davey Graham (who wrote the tune Angi/ Angie, also known as a Jansch track)
Jackson C Frank was a big influence on Bert Jansch..that's a high compliment for anyone!
