(from Dave

| A: | answer to your question and the words for you :
The Humour is On Me Now
Oh, as I went out one mornin,'
It being the month of May
A farmer and his daughter
I spied upon me way.
And the girl sat down quite calmly
to the milkin' of her cow
Sayin' I will an' I must get married,
for the humour is on me now.
Oh, the humour is on me now,
Oh, the humour is on me now
Sayin' I will an' I must get married,
for the humour is on me now.
[Father Lonergan (Ward Bond) takes over at the piano.]
So at last the daughter married,
she married well-to-do
And loved her darlin' husband
a month, a year or two.
But Sean was all a tyrant
and she quickly rued her vow
Sayin' I'm sorry I ever got married,
for the humour is off me now.
Oh, humour is off me now,
Oh, humour is off me now.
Sayin' I'm sorry I ever got married,
for the humour is off me now.

| Q: | Could someone inform me who the composer was of "The Humour is on me Now"? I know my great uncle, Harold Richard Hayward performed it, and I was always under the impression he was also the composer, but wish to verify/clarify if this is factually correct. Richard Hayward,as he was known, also performed on stage with Noel Coward. Can anyone assist with any conclusive information.
