I know "Wee" John Cameron would jump at the chance to reply to this thread, God rest his Scots soul. This bit of lyric comes from Digs In Birmingham which is track three on the ca.1970 Sons of Erin album, Sons Of Erin which coincidentally I am currently trying to transcribe from a copy of the album. Any help completing the words would be appreciated. Here's all I have so far....

I -----
Let go the blanket, Michael, don't -----
That's all you'll hear in Eng-a-land in the digs in Birmingham.

That's also about all I hear so far, as "Little" John starts singing faster and his brogue gets in the way of me ear. :-)
