I'm not sure what the genre for this song should be.--Clemmarshall 07:38, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

I suppose 'English Folk Song' is the nearest we're going to get, although of course one of the beauties of Floyd is that their music so often defies categorisation (which is why Floyd fans, like, say, jazz fans, are often seen as a particular group of people). Quite a few of Waters' early songs are folky in nature, and are symptomatic of his burgeoning efforts to be seen as a 'songwriter' rather than just a writer of music for a rock group.
