Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Sammy Shuttleworth's Party
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: sam shuttleworths party
After supper there were gay quadrilles
Kissing all the wenches...was fine
Little Jimmy Dutton our lazy lad
He started working....full time
Our Aunt May do you know what she did?
Did an exhibition dance on the copper lid
Lid fell through and we heard a scream
Couldnt see poor old Aunty May for steam

Eeeeee with her nice new evening dress on
Eeeeee and little Maggie Dwyer
Eeeeee someone dropped a Woodbine
Down her camisole and set her shuttlecock on fire
Eeeeeee then we put it out with water
Just as we had got a lovely view
So Tony Robson got a match
And set it all on fire again
And eee by gum we had a reet fine do

(the relish with which Banjo Willie sang "Just as we had got a lovely view" stays with me 40 years later!)
