GUEST,Gordon Origins: Show Me the Way to Go Home (75* d) RE: Lyr Req: Show Me the Way to Go Home 24 Sep 11


My mother-in-law Lizzie had a completely different take on the second verse - she sang about "what came next"... I have never found nor heard it sung anywhere else. Would be great if someone could revive it:

V2:
I showed him the way to go home,
And I showed him the way to go to bed,
I showed him where I was tattooed,
From the tips of my toes to my head.
I had the all clear on my back,
And the ship sailing over the foam.
When he asked for more, I opened the door,
And showed him the way to go home

(then a final chorus)

Thanks for all the memories Lizzie...
