Clandestine's Cannonball, from their CD The Haunting.

My son John was tall and slim
And he had a leg for every limb
Now he's got no legs at all
They're both shot away with a cannonball

Well were you drunk or were you blind
To leave your two fine legs behind
Or was it from walking upon the sea
That took your legs from the ground to the knee

I wasn't drunk and I wasn't blind
To leave my two fine legs behind
Was a cannonball on the fifth of May
Took my two fine legs away

And all the foreign wars I'll now denounce
'Twixt this king of England or that king of France
I'd rather my legs as they used to be
Than the king of Spain and his whole navy

For I was tall and I was slim
And I had a leg for every limb
Now I've got no legs at all
You can't win a race with a cannonball

For I was tall and I was slim
And I had a leg for every limb
Now I've got no legs at all
You can't win a race with a cannonball

I've mentioned Clandestine several times but never been able to find any video of them to post. This is close. The video quality is not too good but you can get the idea. Emily, E.J. and Al are here but it isn't Greg on the fiddle.

This is from an informal session at McGonigel's Mucky Duck in Houston, TX.

Clandestine has been reformed!

E.J. Jones, Emily Dugas and Gregory McQueen have been joined by Al Cofrin, who replaces Jen Hamel's guitar with his cittern.

The band's website with group bios is here.

I see that the only gig they have planned for the rest of this year is an appearence at McGonigel's Mucky Duck in Houston. They don't seem to be touring as much in this form as they used to, but I heard that they were in PA not too long ago.
