THE LEAN AND UNWASHED TIFFY
(Cyril Tawney)

I'm a lean and unwashed tiffy
I come up from Plymouth Town
I can fix it in a jiffy
If you'll hand that spanner down
If you'll hand - that spanner down.

Portland girls are raving beauties
'Specially in the summer time
They make you curse these week-end duties
Making love to grease and grime
Making love - to grease and grime.

I kissed her standing, kissed her lying,
And I called her "turtle-dove"
If she'd had wings I'd have kissed her flying
That's the way I won my love
That's the way - I won my love.

She left me for a wardroom chappie
She said "He's the better man"
He needs wine to keep her happy;
All I drink is Black-and-Tan
All I drink - is Black-and-Tan.
