Song "Ruby Duby Du" on YouTube.com, 17 July 2007
10/10
Author: sun-mines from United States

I put a copy of "Ruby Duby Du" on YouTube.com. I don't know how long it will last because I don't have the copyright. Tags: Wolcott.

Now, I don't appreciate this minimum length for comment being 10 lines of text. It's a waste of my time and your time.

I thought by now IMDb would have wised up.

So, I'm really sorry to have to do this to you all, but just to make IMDb happy, here's a little part of a little poem by my Dad:

"We do not know why the tear drop fell, and he would not like it so, But from his eyes I'll theorize he was looking into Hell.

A Hell of his own making, he knew where the trail had turned, Without his help the die was cast, and so the bridges burned.

High in the Hills of Tranquility sits a hawk on a lonely byrne. Broods he not in senility, but for a love who will never return.
