Subject: RE: lyr/Origins: Pretty polly (Knife in the Window)
On second thoughts the 8th verse fits better from Bill Whiting.

Now her small things fell off her and (he) into bed tumbled x2
And I'll leave you to guess how (the) young couple fumbled.

(Whiting uses the first person here which is inconsistent.)
