01 Nov 07 - 06:34 AM (#2184107) Subject: Craig Morgan Robson Lewes Arms workshop From: Valmai Goodyear Moira Craig, Carolyn Robson and Sarah Morgan are doing an all-day vocal harmony workshop on Saturday 10th. November and an all-day ballad forum on Sunday 11th. November at the Lewes Arms, Lewes, East Sussex BN7 1YH. They also perform at the Lewes Arms Folk Club on the Saturday evening. Booking forms for the workshops and for evening tickets can be printed from the club's website http://www.lewesarmsfolkclub.org/. It helps if people coming to the ballad forum can choose a ballad in advance to sing and talk about so that we get a good variety. These are the ballads chosen so far - it's promising to be a fascinating day: Binnorie (version of Twa Sisters) Brown Robin Clerk Colvin Demon Lover Dives & Lazarus Flying Cloud Holland Handkerchief Lady Diamond Lankin Laszlo Feyer Lord Bateman Mary Hamilton Redesdale & Wise William Sheath & Knife Sir Lionel Sir Patrick Spens Tam Lin Tyne of Harrow Unquiet Grave (Sussex version) The Well Below The Valley Willie's Fatal Visit Tootle pip, Valmai (Lewes) |

Your girlfriend says when she's got you wearing a tie You're looking like a puff and you think I've had enough Stop and take a look at yourself for a while And you'll know it's time to say [Chorus:] Cheerio, cheerio Toodle pip, toodle pip This is our last goodbye Don't cry Cheerio, cheerio Toodle pip, toodle pip Our last farewell, goodbye. Sitting watching Coronation street You decide to put your feet up, just about comfy in your seat And she says, I'm feeling hungry If she sends you out for a bag of fish'n'chips You'll know it is time to say... [Chorus] Need a bit of shut eye so you lie on the couch She is yapping in the background Baby's things wedding rings It's not for you, she will never keep her mouth shut You have to tell her now, once and for all Coz now it's time to say... [Chorus] |
