Thread Name: Lyr Req: British Bobby (Fred Wedlock)
Subject: 'Bristol Bobbies'
Many years ago, in the days of my drunken youth, I heard a song entitled (I think) "Bristol Bobbies" a sardonic look at the Bristol Police.

It went something like :-

"I'am a Bristol Bobby, patrolling on my beat,
You can tell it's me thats comming by the pounding of my feet, ...."

Anybody know this and know the source, or better still can post the lyrics. A search in the DT, and forum under Bristol gives no returns.
