Gene Graham Lyr Req: England Swings (Roger Miller) (9) RE: What is the title? 16 Jun 97


ROGER MILLER's - ENGLAND SWINGS

(REFRAIN:) England swings like a pendulum do

Bobbies on bicycles two by two

Westminster Abbey, the Tower of Big Ben

The rosy, red cheeks of the little children.

Now if you huff and puff and you finally save enough money

Up - to take your family on a trip across the sea

Take a tip before you take your trip

Let me tell ya where to go. Go to England. (Refrain)

Mama's old pajamas and your papa's mustache

Fallin' out the windowsill, frolic in the grass

Tryin' to mock the way they talk, fun, but all in vain

Gapin' at the dapper men with derby hats and cane. (Refrain)
