STRIPEY AND BLONDIE
As sung by Cyril Tawney, tune Frankie and Johnny.

C'm'ere and I'll tell you a story,
It's all about Malta, you know.
It's all about a Valletta-bound jane
And a fellow called Stripey Joe,
Ch.
He was her man,
He was doin' her wrong.

Blondie was just in her twenties,
Stripey was past thirty-two!
Stripey was running Blondie
And an O.D. winger, too.

Blondie walked down into Sliema.
Stripey hadn't been with the car,
And you all know the place where Blondie went;
It was the dive called The Cairo Bar.

Blondie walked into The Cairo,
She ordered a nice 'Juicy Blue,'
And over in the corner sat Stripey
And the O.D. winger, too.

Stripey saw Blondie approachin'
He said "A sherry for Blondie, please."
"You can stuff your sherry!" said Blondie,
"And take you hands off that O.D's knees!

Blondie stormed out of The Cairo,
She rowed around to P.G. Bay,
And goin' on board the Warspite
she stole a 15-inch away.

Blondie rowed back round to Sliema,
15- incher as well,
And aiming by director
She blew The Cairo Bar to Hell!

Blondie, she's up in Corradina,
-that's if she's still alive!
And she's chamferin' down that 15-inch
To make the barrel of a four-point-five!

Glossary, as far as I know it.

Jane: a woman. Not a completely respectful term.
Stripey: An experienced seaman with good-conduct badges. 'Stripes.'
O.D. winger: A newer seaman that a more experienced man 'takes under his wing.'
Juicy Blue:   No idea!
P.G. Bay(sp?) No idea. Can't find it on the map. That's what it sounds like.
Warspite: H.M.S. Warspite, a battleship armed with 15-inch guns. (Ladies often giggle at the 'stole a 15-inch' line.
Director: An aiming mechanism.
Corradina (sp?) Was a naval prison, for men only! That's what it sounds like.
4.5: anti-aircraft gun, for shooting 'angels!'

This is from memory of 35+ years ago, and was never in my repertoire. I stand to be corrected on any point.
I was looking for the words for a Maltese friend.
