My friend has shared more lyrics with me. Does this honk any horns? FOUR HORSE CHARIOT > Oh will I am, Oh will I am, > I've been to the sea side. > I've seen a four horse Charabanc > Say's I, "I'll take a ride". > > The fare was eighteen pence I know, > Twas a lot of money for me. > But you can't do a thing on the cheap will I am, > When you're in society > No you can't do a thing on the cheap will I am, > When you're in society. > > There were eleven ole ladies all setting in a row, > Each sucking on a peppermint drop. > And each had a bottle of something, > Like ole my ginger pop. > > Says one old gal, says she to me, > "Would you like to have a drop". > Says I "You're a nice ole cup-o-tea", > Say she, "Oh go along". > Says I "You're a nice ole cup-o-tea", > Say she, "Oh go along". > > There was one ole lady in a great big hat, > with a feather of heavenly blue, > Says she, "Young man I'm a thinking > that this hat would 'bout suit you". > Says she, "Young man Im a thinking > that this hat would bout suit you". > > So we both changed hats and how > we laughed and cried and never mind. > High toned music is a little melancholy, > But it's always so refoined. > High toned music is a little melancholy, > But it's always so refoined. It strikes me as a bit muddled. I haven't checked this set of lyrics against the sheet music linked above by Mick; perhaps that will help these words fall into place better. Jerry
