Here's a song - well, lyrics anyway - to everyone who wears a hat: Where Did You Get That Hat - Jas. Rolmaz 1901 Chorus Where did you get that hat Where did you get that tile Isn't it a knobby one In just the proper style I should like to have one Just the same as that (Where 'ere i go they shout) "Hello, where did you get that hat?" Now how I came to get this hat Is very strange and funny My uncle died and left to me His property and money And when the will it was read out They told me straight and flat If I'm to have his money I must also wear his hat Chorus When I go to the concert hall In the concert season Someone's is sure to shout at me Without the slightest reason When I go to the opera hall To have a jolly spree There's one or two sopranos Who are sure to shout at me "Hello where did you get that hat?" Chorus When Mr. And Mrs. Ramsbottom Had their last garden party I was amongst the guests, Who had a welcome true and hearty. The Prince of Wales was also there, And my heart jumped with glee, When someone said the prince Would like to have a word with me, "Hello, where did you get that hat?"^^^
