Subject: Lyr Add: THE BLACKPOOL BELLE (H Broadbent, J Smith From: Mark Dowding Date: 12 Dec 03 - 11:38 AM Here you are: ^^ THE BLACKPOOL BELLE by Howard Broadbent and Jimmy Smith The Blackpool Belle was a get-away train that went from Northern Stations, What a beautiful sight on a Saturday night, bound for the 'luminations. No mothers or dads, just girls and lads, young and fancy-free Out for the laughs on the Golden Mile at Blackpool by the Sea. CHORUS: I remember them very well All the happy gang aboard the Blackpool Belle. I remember them pals of mine When I ride the Blackpool Line, And the songs we sang together on the Blackpool Belle. Little Piggy Greenfield he was there. He thought he was mighty slick. He bought a hat on the Golden Mile. The hat said "Kiss me quick". Piggy was a lad for all the girls, but he drank too much beer. He made a pass at a Liverpool lass and she pushed him off the pier. CHORUS Ice-cream Sally could never settle down. She lived for her Knickerbocker Glories, Till she clicked with a bloke who said he was broke; she loved his ice-cream stories. Sally took it all in with a smile and a grin. She fell for Sailor Jack. He went for a trip to the Isle of Man and never did come back. CHORUS Some of us went up the Blackpool Tower and others in the Tunnel of Love. A few made off for the Blackpool Sands under the pier above. There was always a rush at the midnight hour, but we made it just the same, And I made off with a Liverpool lass, but I never could remember her name. CHORUS The Blackpool Belle has a thousand tales if they could all be told. Many of these I will recall as I am growing old. They were happy days and I miss the times we pulled the curtains down, And the passion wagon would steam back home and we would go to town. CHORUS Cheers Mark |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE BLACKPOOL BELLE (from H Broadbent) From: Jim Dixon Date: 22 Mar 15 - 11:19 PM I heard this on Spotify: THE BLACKPOOL BELLE As sung by Howard Broadbent on "The Blackpool Belle: Songs from Lancashire, UK" (2012) [The words are the same as those posted above except for this verse:] 2. We had Tennessee Ernie, Frankie Laine, and Crying Johnny Ray. We played the jukebox over again like they do today. Girls wore stockings and suspenders; oi(?), I had a time, Pretending I was Nat King Cole and Dickie Valentine. |
