Subject: Lyr Req: Tell Me Mrs Holroyd Can You Feel Owt
I am looking for the words and origins of what I believe to be a norhtern music hall song in which the singer bases his decieon whether to go on a dat trip to Blackpool on the on the weatehr forecasting abilities of Mrs Holroyds rheumatic joints. The only bits I recall goes something like "they tell me there a big do on in blackpool and I thought I'd like to go" "tell me Mrs Holroyd can you feel owt, can you feel owt like rain".

The only person I have heard sing this was Robert who was a musician with Hartshead Morris.
