One of the first 7" singles I bought, back in the day. Still love it.

This reminds me of a tune I liked. Something about Paris was in the title and I think it was played by somebody with the name Gary but I could be wrong. I'd like to hear that again if only I could remember what it was :lol:

Parisienne-walkways - Gary Moore

Great one for exponents of the "Air Guitar"

Shortest folk songs.

Tom Pierce, Tom Pierce, lend me thy gray mare - No

On Ilkley moor with a hat.

Found the flowers.

I've never roved.

another favourite of mine.

As an aside, I was on a golf holiday in Spain, watching the "caberet" (one singer + guitarist). When she went for [ahem] "a comfort break", he suddenly burst into one of the best renditions of it I've heard. Fair took my breath away, up till then he looked as bored as the rest of us. :lol:

Normally the original is the best but sometimes...

...the cover version is so much better.

Enjoy.

Favourite drinking song from my Navy days...

There once was a lad called Alladin
Who had a magic Lamp
He stole it off a Matelot who was fathoms up a tramp
He stole it off a Matelot to see what he could get
And he rubbbed and he rubbed and he rubbed and he rubbed
But he ain't got F***all yet

La de da fiddle dee
60 annas equals one rupee
feed of ar8e up a sycamour tree
poor bu**er Janner

The Sultan said to Alladin
my palace you will paint
Alladin said to the Sultan - No I fu**in aint
So he armed himself with a paintbrush and a pot of black enamel
and he shoved it up the A**sehole of the sultan's favourite camel

And we'll all go back to Oggie land (where's that)
to Oggie land (where's that )
To Oggieland
And we'll all go back to Oggie land
Where they cant tell ???? from tissue paper tissue paper marmalade and jam

No, it's all to do with the drinking I suppose.

When sufficiently pi55ed it actually makes perfect sense.

When we meet, if we have both been drinking I will sing it and you will understand it perfectly too. :D

What you fail to mention is the taking off of all your clothes whilst sing said song and getting covered in beer at the end :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
