There is to this song merely a rough melodic plan which changes somewhat 

 toward the end of the song. The only constant thing about it is the repetition 

 of the E phrase in the refrain, but even this has a different extension each time. 

 The connectives are missing almost altogether or else are practically inseparable 

 from the verse which follows, except in two cases. They are present in the words 

 however, as a guide, and an examination of the music will reveal them. The 

 song begins on the sixth degree of the scale, somewhat flatted here, but probably 

 not intentional, and on the first beat of the measure. The refrains end on the 

 second degree, so that it is likely that the song would end there if finished.
