Subject: Lyr Add: BACK-YARD ABORTION WALTZ (Robyn Archer) From: John Date: 15 Oct 97 - 11:49 PM Had trouble responding to earlier thread on abortion songs. Here is a powerful example written by Robyn Archer. I have done this from memory - so hope that it's true enough to the original, which came from a stage show she wrote and performed in UK and Australia. BACK-YARD ABORTION WALTZ
Do you remember the Forties,
There was always a shack, CHORUS
Let's hark back to the War years I wouldn't speak false,
Do you remember the Yankees,
And you wept a lot more CHORUS
Let's hark back to the War years I wouldn't speak false,
Do you recall Betty, when she joined she was a pretty,
Joined the WAAF when the war came, CHORUS
Let's hark back to the War years I wouldn't speak false, REPEAT CHORUS
