I am searching for a song that my grandfather used to sing to me ALL THE TIME when I was a small child, but the only line I remember is.. "As I lie between the Sheets on Sunday morning".. It wouldn't be such an urgent request, but my grandfather passed away and I'd like to sing it to my family at the burial.

Please help if possible

Thanks all

It's an old (excuse me "auld") Harry Lauder song.

I can only remember the chorus:

Beautiful Sunday, I wish it would never come Monday As I lie beneath the sheets, my bed; adoring it. Och it's very nice Yes it's very, very nice To get your breakfast in your bed on Sunday Morning

I'll poll the local Scottish Mafia to see if they remember any more of it.

Breakfast in My Bed on Sunday Morning
by Harry Lauder

I never, never worry, worry, and I never, never grieve
I take things nice and easy - what I canna take, I leave.
I work the whole week round frae early morn till late at nicht.
On Saturday, I eagerly look forword wae delicht to,,,,

Chorus
Beautiful Sunday! I wish it would never come Monday!
For I lie between the sheets my bed adornin'!
O, it's very nice, yes it's very very nice
To get yer breakfast in yer bed on Sunday morning.

Verse 2
What joy, what great delicht it is, to hear the kirk bells ring!
I wouldn't miss their welcome sound, no not for anythin'
When they commence to ring, I rise, but if it looks like rain,
I fill my pipe, then licht it, and go back to bed again on,,,,

Beautiful Sunday.....repeat chorus twice
