lyrics

Wath-On-Dearne Blues
(Lyrics: Mike Harding)

Well I wok’ up this mornin’,
Din’t feel reight grand tha knows
I wok’ up this mornin’,
Din’t feel reight greatly tha knows
Got so drunk last neet,
Fell in love wi’ a big garden gnome

Well I put me arms ararnd him
Laid him on the grass
Well I put me arms ararnd him
Laid him on the grass
But I got reight worried
When he started kissin’ me… back

Tha knows I play all them blues
By Blind Lemon Jefferson and Booker T.
Tha knows I play all them blues
By Blind Lemon Jefferson and Booker T.
But it sounds like Burt Weedon strangling Gracie Fields

I said I met a lass in Barnsley
So I thought I’d tek a chance
I said I met a lass in Barnsley
So I thought I’d tek a chance
I put Brut in me socks
And self-raisin’ flour down me pants

She said “Lad take off thy underpants,
I tell thee this is it”
She said “Lad take off thy underpants,
I tell thee this is it”
I says “You can tek ‘em off and yer welcome,
But I doubt if they’ll bloody well fit!”

She said “Let’s get some baby oil
And tek it up to bed with us”
She said “Let’s get some baby oil
And tek it up to bed with us”
Well I drank that baby oil,
But it just made me throw up

She said “I want to feel the earth move
When tha meks love to me”
She said “I want to feel the earth move
When tha meks love to me”
I said “At this time of night,
Where am I going to find a JCB?”
