GUEST,Timbo of the 'Pool Origins: Down in the Valley (bawdy) (35) RE: Origins: pg13 Down in the Valley 12 Dec 13

I always thought that this was another of our Liverpool vulgar songs. Kids used to sing this on school coach trips when I was a kid, and the lyrics may have been slightly different to some pasted here. It was always 'down the back alley' not anything else.

Another line I haven't seen mentioned above, was the exceptionally vulgar 'all in green all in green, I filled full of cream' yeah, not exactly rhyming! Poetic licence?! The closest one to the Liverpudlian one is Joe Offer's version 2.
