Question
I am trying to help my girlfriend find a song. We believe the Title is "Jockamo" and that it is by Donna Fargo. Maybe it was even a "B" side of a single... However when we search for her songs we cannot find proof of its existence, nor can we find the lyrics. At this time we cannot remember all of the lyrics. However, we remember that it is about Jockamo and the girl and that they are a trapeze duo and he feels she was cheating on him, and debates whether or not to catch her in the air, but when he looks in her eyes he sees the unwavering love and trust and catches her.  

Okay there is small proof that someone outside of our family is searching for the Long Lost Jockamo -- (please see Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Good-Old-Country-Donna-Fargo/dp/B00004VVYT   "That was yesterday, December 19, 2000  By A Customer" )

Please verify we are not crazy!  I hope you can tell us good news: that it is available on CD or Download someplace!
Or maybe when it might be released.

Thank you ever so much in advance.

Answer
Hello Samantha,

"Jacamo" was a minor country hit for Donna Fargo in November 1981. As far as I can find out, the song is not available for purchase on any CD at the moment. But a copy of the original 45 record is available from:
