about

Thank you for listening to my collaboration with Andy. I've sent to Andy my piano piece I composed for our collaboration and Andy wrote his lyrics, added vocal melody and recorded his gorgeous vocals with beautiful harmonizations. Andy's lyricsa are an adaption of Nursery Rhyme 'round the mulberry bush'

According to local historian R. S. Duncan the 'round the mulberry bush' song originated with female prisoners at HMP Wakefield.
A sprig taken from Normanton Golf Club grew into a fully mature mulberry tree around which prisoners exercised in the moonlight (from Wikipedia):

lyrics

'Round The Mulberry Bush'


Can you imagine
Being in their shoes
Cold and frosty
In the moonlight

Can you imagine how you’d go round the mulberry bush?

Carry yourself tall
Only quick glances
Don’t ask questions
Leave your tears at home

Can you imagine how you’d go round the mulberry bush?

Wake up, wake up
Children call
Try to wake up
Remember life beyond the wall

Can you imagine
Being in their shoes

Can you imagine how you’d go round the mulberry bush?

Wake up, wake up
Try to wake up
