Hi Paul,

I cannot recall with certainty if I actually knew the song before, 
because I have been living outside Israel since May 1964, but it feels 
and sounds familiar and I am sure it was popular.

According to the Hebrew sites it was performed by some popular groups 
such as the Parvarim  (פרברים)  and the Dudaim (דודאים) with the 
likelihood that it was performed from the early to middle sixties and later.

There is a short (incomplete) recording of it on the website of the 
author, Yoram Taharlev which you could play by clicking on the play
