Snuffy ADD: Mary Ellen at the Church Turned Up (60* d) RE: ADD: Mary Ellen at the Church Turned Up 18 Jun 22


So many variants on a simple story line - and none of them exactly as I learned from my Mum about 1950:

Mary Ellen at the church turned up.
Her Ma turned up, and her Pa turned up.
Her sister Gert; her Uncle Bert;
The parson in his long white shirt turned up.
But no bridegroom at the church turned up:
Just a telegraph boy with his nose turned up
With a telegram to say "Can't marry you today,
And You'll find me in the river with my toes turned up".
