It sounds like "The Wreck Of The Old Number Nine."

Hi. I've emailed you the words. The song I located was recorded by Jim Reeves. Hope they help.

Everyone seems normal until you get to know them!

Hiya,

Here's a trick for you. If you're trying to find a song and you know any of the lyrics, copy what you know into www.google.com and do a search - you'll invariably find song info, author, lyrics, guitar chords etc.. Often if I'm out & about and hear a song i like, I jot down as many of the words as I can make out and find it using this method when I get home..

Another nifty music-finding trick (again, assuming you have a PC and internet access).. Go to www.tunatic.com and download their little program. It "listens" to music you play from mp3 files, from the radio, even from your phone and tells you the title, artist, album etc. from a huge online database.. very handy for identifying those mp3's with names like TRACK01, TRACK 02 etc..

Now, if only I can find that elusive Midnight Well track...

Regards,
Gordon
