I always think of my parents whenever I hear this song. Dad sings it to Mum after a few beers too many - but he means every word

Just got home after a good night in the local pub. This tune was playing and everybody in the pub joined in - everyone seemed to know the lyrics

It does sound like a fun song to sing to.

For a couple of weeks back in '68,the top two songs on Billboard were this one and "Hey Jude",which both involved Paul McCartney as Paul discovered and produced Hopkins' version of the nearly ancient British pub tune for the Beatles' Apple label.I simply wouldn't understand ANYONE not enjoying this one.I feel the song's subject matter that revolves around the magic of youth is relatable to us all.Great post,Jet!PS,Hopkin also had a big hit with a tune called "Goodbye",which was credited to Lennon & McCartney,but I think only Paul really wrote it.One of those Lennon/McCartney numbers that was credited to both but only one of them actually composed.Really nice 60's pop that I'm afraid time has forgotten..........
