- Go to Something Mother Used to Sing
I love your post about songs of yesterday. The song you posted reminds me of the many great songs that have been written, but are not known. Every song has a story.

Quite singable, that's a funny word. I love hearing about your Mother I know she was stern but circumstances. How many women would one hear singing these days. Oh I forgot I was always whistling not wolf whistles just for the joy of it. No I cannot raise a sound only blow🌺🌺.

Re: Goldiec
This song was on radio in the 1930s & 1940s. Not sure who even performed it, but mother used to learn many songs there. We girls also learned pop songs that were broadcast during the dishwashing period after supper, or on rainy days when we were stuck indoors.

I was just singing this the other day. My darling Wendy, my cousin who lived just up the road from me,we sang this as a duet at a school concert when we were little girls. We had to be taught how to do the fight bits because we never fought ever, loved always. She died of cancer when we were sixty. it has been a long twenty years without her.
