Thread Name: Origins: Hangin' on the Old Barbed Wire
Subject: Lyr Add: Hangin on the Old Barbed Wire...
Y'all know the song, or do yeh, lovely version sung by John Roberts and Tony Barrand...
If you want to find the General, I know where he is,
I know where he is, I know where he is,
he's in Paris at the Folies Bergeres
I saw him, I saw him, in Paris at the Folies Bergeres, I saw him
in Paris at the Folies Bergeres
If you want to find the Colonel, I know where he is,
He's pinning another medal on his chest...
If you want find the Major, I know where he is,...
he's drinkin up the company rum...
If you want to find the Sergeant, I know where he is...
he's brewing up up another pot of tea...
If you want to find the privates, I know where the are...
they're hanging on the old barbed wire
I'd say this one is due for a revival as well as some new verses, eh? If you want to find George Dubya, I know where he is...
Cheers,
Shaina
