NOTES [53 words]: The Andy Steward who sang and co-wrote this song is not the Andy M. Stewart who played with Silly Wizard many decades later. The song itself is not traditional in any sense, but many people think it is, so I'm filing it here to make it clear that it's not. For the complicated history of it, see FolkSongAndMusicHall. - RBW
