GUEST,Randy middle aged northerner! Origins: Randy old parson (28) Origins: Randy old parson 13 Jun 06


Hello you musically erudite personages - can you PleasE put a name to the performer+ album(s)- whom i think hailed from Coventry or Brum - and is/was an excellent singer guitarist and among many songs recorded "The randy old parson"???????

The premise of the song being;- A farmer in kent has a beautiful daughter whom the "parson" wants to get twixt the sheets.(tut) The Parson approaches the lissom young daughter whom, with the help of her father work out a plan to entrap the "parson"

SO - she lures him into her bedroom gets him to take off his trousers
at which point her father rushes in and confronts the "parson" the "parson" jumps out of the window leaving his trousers - in the pockets of which is some money (and a watch)??? (possibly)

He then goes back over the hill to his wife.

The first verse starts; - There once was a farmer who lived down in Kent ...

I hope someone knows or can remember the writer/performer. (maybe Nick something) NO not steal - as in Nicholas!!! 70s or early eighties.



Eye thangyou.
