Marvellous!

I came up with the first couple of verses of an old R&B/Blues standard this morning...

There is a house in Old Raibanth
It's called the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy Yelm knows, and I was one.

My Father was a Soldier
With a Bright shield and a spear
My Mother was a serving girl
Down by the old Oslir

And I'm sure there's milage in the folk* classic

In a Cavern, In a Canyon
Living there, inside a Mine
Was a Mostali, with his Jolanti
And his name was Isdilian

(*The problem with most folk songs is they were written by the people - Tom Lehrer)
