George Cooper

English poet (1820 - 1876)

The following poem "Twenty Froggies" and MIDI file has been contributed by  John Rhodes.  jrhodes@pacifier.com
He wrote:  “I have attached the words to "Twenty Froggies" as transcribed from a tape recording by my grandmother in 1957 when she was 74 years old.  She learned the song in her youth.  Nana had a memory like none but perhaps my daughter -- they can recall tune and words exactly with barely one hearing.”

"I have appended the complete song, and a MIDI file approximately as she played it on a 6-string Gibson."

"One ship sails East, And another West, By the self-same winds that blow, Tis the set of the sails And not the gales, That tells the way we go."
