Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Bold Sir John - Two Ronnies sketch
The Jehosophat&Jones song that still makes me proud to be of the same genus as Ronnie Barker is the immortal stammering one - I can remember only one verse and a chorus:

Oh Emmylou, I followed you
Up on the Telephone
To say thanks for coming to the dance with me
and for lettin me take you home

I'm sorry I seemed so nervous
and s-started to s-stammer and s-sweat
but it s-started ever since I saw you, and
I aint got over it yet...
(Chorus)
I stared at your great big ber-b-b-berber b-b-b-b-blue green eyes
I wondered if you'd fer f-f-fer fer flirt with all the guys
When you smiled I nearly sher-sh-sh-sher sher shot right out the door
Cos I'd never see such pretty little ter t-t-ter ter teeth before


THere's another verse with the immortal their line
"I get a funny feelin in my ber b-b-ber ber
ber b-b-ber-b-brain" - can anyone fill in the rest?
