Lyr Req: I Said, No, I Don't Like to Do That!

Looking for the words of this number, about a man who finds himself in the company of a lady who invites and entices him at every oppertunity, and the last line of each verse is his reply,...

"No I don't like to do that!

He ends leaving the bedroom promising...

"I'll be back round in the morning, Collecting my coat and my hat........."

Anyone?

Didn't find lyrics, but I found a CD it's on.

Unfortunately, Sorcha didn't tell us the name of the album, or the performer, or even the song title, and now the link is dead.

I have been looking for songs called either NO, I DON'T LIKE TO DO THAT or I DON'T LIKE TO DO THAT, and have come up with nothing—not at Allmusic, or BMI, or ASCAP, or the US Copyright Office.

Sorcha's link may be dead, but the last part of it was the number of a CD (which doesn't feature this song). But googling for NLCD08 produces a mention of it in the blurb for a double CD Comic Songs sung along the Stour Valley, (which does feature this song).

No I don't like to do that is track 11 on disc 1, sung by Sid Cooke of Peasenhall

Bravo, Snuffy; that's good detective work. Now with that information we'll still know something even if your link goes dead.

The US Catalog of Copyright Entries has this:

(I wonder why I didn't find that before?)
