Henry the 8th I am I am I got a song that will get on your nerves

Christine is this the one? The Dark Girl Dressed in Blue. When first in Glasgow I arrived, the truth I will unfold, I had a pocketbook with me, well filled with notes and gold, I walked about from place to place its beauties for to view, When all at once I chanced to see a Dark Girl dressed in blue She was a nice gal, fal de riddle i do, A beauty, fal de riddle eh. She was a fine girl, fal de riddle i do, A charmer, fal de riddle eh, Her graceful leg and fairy feet, and eyes like diamonds bright, Her coal black hair and rosy-cheek they did my heart delight, She stepped into an omnibus, I thought I'd go in too, And there I took my seat beside that dark girl dressed in blue. The 'bus got thronger as we went, she got crushed up rather tight, At length she fainted as I thought, which put me in a fright, Says I, ' my dear, a crowded place does not agree with you.' ' Oh sir, assist me to get out,' said the Dark Girl dressed in blue. When we got out of the omnibus, we walked arm in arm together, Then she made free to ask of me, if I'd got a father or mother, 'O yes,' says I, 'and a grandmother too, but pray miss, what areyou' I'm head engineer in a mllliner's shop, said the dark girl dressed in blue As we walked on, says I, 'you're much fatigued I think, Will you go into this public house, and have a glass of drink, To pay for which she declared she would, saying,' Sir, oblige me do, To change this note, I refuse could not, this dark girl dressed in blue, The change for her I did obtain, she says, ' Sir, excuse me pray, Remain yon here for a short time, I shan't be long away,' Scarce had she gone, a policeman came saying, 'Please, sir, I want you, That was a forged note just now changed, where's the dark girl dressed in blue.' Then to the station I was marched, and before the bailies took, And there I told them I had lost my watch and pocket book, They placed a lady it the bar, quite different to my view, For in deep mourning she was rigged, not a dark girl dressed in blue. They raised her veil, to my surprise, I was taken all aback, Her dress it was a reversible, a sky blue and deep black, The charge it likewise was reversed, they believed my statement true. They acquitted me, but sixty days gave the dark girl dressed in blue. So all young gents I pray beware, and a warning take by me, For young ladies are not always what they do appear to be, Examine well each shawl and dress, the lining likewise too, Or a transformation scene you'll have, like the dark girl dressed in blue

Is he still alive? My mum liked him.....I am more a Stones fan or most things from the sixties.......

Well Sandra, I have always liked Max Bygraves, ;-))

Quite sweet really.

For Sandra You need hands to hold someone you care for You need hands to show that you're sincere When you feel nobody wants to know you You need hands to brush away the tears When you hold a brand new baby You need tender hands to guide them on their way You need hands to thank the Lord for living And for giving us this day Let's dance for the ladies and gentlemen.... (Instrumental Break) You need hands to show the world you're happy And you need hands when you have to stop the bus But the hands we love so dear are the hands we love to hear Are the hands that you give to us Everybody, are the hands that you give Everybody, that's nice, thank you, Thank you ladies and gentlemen, thank you

The Laughing Policeman I know a fat old policeman He's always on our street A fat and jolly red-faced man He really is a treat He's too kind for a policeman He's never known to frown And everybody says He is the happiest man in town! He laughs upon point duty He laughs upon his beat He laughs at everybody When he's walking in the street He never can stop laughing He says he's never tried But once he did arrest a man And laughed until he cried! His jolly face is wrinkled And then he shut his eyes He opened his great big mouth It was a wonderous size! He said: 'I must arrest you!' He didn't know what for And then he started laughing Until he cracked his jaw! So if you chance to meet him While walking 'round the town Shake him by his fat ol' hand And give him half a crown His eyes will beam and sparkle He'll gurgle with delight And then you'll start him laughing With all his blessed might!

Allie I am sitting here thinking of Uncle Mac and Childrens Favourites (Must be my age!!) ;-))

Oh Dee! Brings back memories! When I was little I sang and danced this on stage with Roy Hudd! Allie x
