Cheers Papa D......so many Frankie and Johnny lyrics, apparently well over a a 100. I've heard maybe 4.

Cheers Jim, think I'm 6" shorter and 50 or 60 llb lighter than your buddy. Uke's are great fun to play.

Cheers Wolf, notice I'm using US terminology, yard sales in the UK are Car Boot Sales. thanks mate.

Love it ! When i was a young boy my dad played this song on his guitar.. Great job, Thanx for the memories

Wonderful! You holding that little uke reminds me of my friend Quincy who is a 6 foot 6" , 350 lb Hawaiian fellow who strums a little uke and makes it look so tiny! Great version of this old song Sammy. You're having way too much fun.

Next to ones made in Hawaii, beat up yard sale ukes are the best!

thanks Nancy, UJ, James and Wes love your commentsl Think I might have taken a few oysters in the Cape Cat.com Nancy :) ...........I'll spend the long winter days dreaming of Cape Cod......So American, yet so British. Loved it, but wish I cudda packed my Shane Wagstaff CBG and an amp. Next year New England in the Fall if I can earn a 'bob or two'. Did a few tunes whilst we were out there but didn't like putting them up on the Nation as its not strictly CBG.....although I did use the 'no rules' element as I put new tuners on and better strings.....and guess what? she sounded a helluva a lot better .Cheers everyone, very kind.and supportive.

Yup, what Wes and Jame O said.   Especially the relaxed pace.   That lil uke sure sounds good in your hands.   I like this song, and your version.
