Pavane, yep, you're dead right, the song is by Bernard Wrigley. The line is actually, "she's speaking in Norwegian 'cos her face is like an 'orse, and it comes from the song "the ballad of knocking Nelly and the sixty niner". This is on Bernard's "Songs, Stories and Elephants" tape (record)?. I only have a tape of this so don't know if a record was ever released, I bought it from Bernard at one of the canal festivals at Ashton - under - Lyne and it is on Loofy recordings No: LOO 005. It was first released in 1976, and reissued in 1984. If you give me a couple of days to try and transcribe the lyrics I will put them on here, (can I do that without infringing copyrights or upsetting anybody??? Can anybody answer that one for me???) Otherwise I could PM you with them. If you would like to know anything else about this tape, such as what else is on it, let me know. Hope this helps you. Cheers for now. Cattail !
