“The Hole In The Wall”

Description

"On a Saturday night the crowd were invited to be there on Sunday to open the ball ... I'll title the harbour 'The Hole In The Wall.'" The singer, a stranger on this shore, "saw at a glance that the girls they were plenty ... We danced the whole night."

Notes

Lehr/Best: The song "refers to the village of Little Bona in Placentia Bay." - BS
