I have somewhat hilarious memories of this song from a fairly local folk festival I was involved in: as part of the festival we used to send a few groups into the local old folks home to give them a few short performances, a taste of the festival. One group slightly misjudged their audience and decided to sing this song! The eyebrows were going up and down like yo-yos at all the « bloodies » not to mention the frequent references to boozing. However, in the wings, they did have a well-stocked drinks trolley, so all the performers and residents got a nice tipple of their choice!
