Benjamin, I do believe you are right. Here's the first verse as I know it: Some friends and I in a public house were playing dominoes one night, When into the room a fireman came, his face all chalky white. "What's up?" says Brown. "Have you seen a ghost? Have you seen your Aunt Moriah?" "Oh my Aunt Moriah be buggered," says he. "The bleeding pub's on fire!" Enjoy the song! Roger in Baltimore
