02 Jul 15 - 04:10 PM (#3720586) Subject: Sixty-Nine songs From: Nigel Parsons Okay, steer clear if you'll be offended. I can't think of many, apart from rugby songs, that mention, or allude to the subject, so I may have to use mondegreens. Every week Radio2 plays "How do you like your eggs in the morning" I like the line: "I like mine with a kiss. Up or down?" Or the Beach Boys: "And the Southern girls with the way they talk They knock me out when I'm down there" Or The Band "Take a load of fanny" (okay, that word has different meanings UK/US) Even Sir Tom (valleys boy & frequenter of rugby clubs) slips in: "I'll soon be kissing your sweet little pussy, cat lips" Any others to add? |

(Ok, not strictly a 69 song, but still open to interpretation, especially if no punctuation!) Please apologise from me to Iain as it's a lovely song, and oft sung in these pairts!! Some hilarious giggles every time we get to that line in "Gallowa Hills" where "doon fa's a" " - one of my friends had a visual picture of all our loose flowing trousers -in Spain this was, trying to keep/look cool for our Spanish audience- falling off as we sang on stage! Apologies for a stupidly over-active mind. |

19 Oct 16 - 10:56 AM (#3815500) Subject: RE: Sixty-Nine songs From: Teribus Bill D the one I am thinking of starts: "I've heard the tales of knocking Nell are coarse and somewhat shockin' On hearing them it's plain to see how she got the nickname Knockin' She served out her apprenticeship she took on big and small In Pubs and clubs and taxis and against the 'Palais' wall One day she met a foreign bloke from gay Paree he hales Though Nellie thought his accent came from somewhere North of Wales He took her to the cinema and then did wine and dine her So she promised him when they got home they'd have a sixty-niner The song you posted I have heard referred to under the title of Nellie and the Gasman. |
