Jim Dixon Lyr Req: Wilberforce, Get Off That Horse (23) Lyr Add: WILBERFORCE, GET OFF THAT HORSE! 19 Dec 16


Someone uploaded it to YouTube since the first time this thread went around. It enabled me to get this transcription:


WILBERFORCE, GET OFF THAT HORSE!
Words and music by Freddie Fisher & Billy Austin.
As recorded by Freddie "Schnickelfritz" Fisher and His Orchestra, 1943.

Oh, I like to eat but I must have meat with my taters and my gravy.
Oh, Wilberforce, get off that horse and bring him in for lunch.

Now I've had beans and beans and beans, enough to run the navy,
So Wilberforce, get off that horse and bring him in for lunch.

My horspitality I offers to ya,
So don't say nay and ride away as if I never knew ya.

A loin for me, a groin for you; we'll barbecue the saddle, too.
Wilberforce, get off that horse and bring him in for lunch.

Wilberforce (Wilberforce), Wilberforce (Wilberforce),
Get off that horse and bring him in for lunch.

[Instrumental break]

Wilberforce (Wilberforce), Wilberforce (Wilberforce),
Get off that horse and bring him in for lunch.
