The link Joe Offer gave for part of Bill Bailey, The Ultimate Sectarian no longer works. I heard it on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAjRLLa5YFE I learned "My Darling Party Line" in my youth because my father had a "Ballad for Sectarians" song booklet. Of course I already knew the Darling Clementine tune. You can also find that trackof Ballads for Sectarians on you tube. It's about the 1939 Hitler - Stalin pact. My Darling Party Line In ol' Moscow, in the Kremlin, In the fall of thirty nine Sat a Russian and a Prussian Writing out the party line Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling party line Oh, I never will desert you For I love this life of mine Leon Trotsky was a Nazi, Oh, we knew it for a fact. Pravda said it, we all read it Before the Stalin-Hitler Pact Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling party line Oh, I never will desert you For I love this life of mine Once a Nazi would be shotsy That was then the party line Now a Nazi's hotsy-totsy, Trotsky's laying British mines Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling party line Oh, I never will desert you For I love this life of mine Now the Nazis and Der Fuehrer Stand within the party line All the Russians love the Prussians Volga boatmen sail the Rhine Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling party line Oh, I never will desert you For I love this life of mine
