Subject: Lyr Req: Several Music Hall and WWI Songs
I've been quite interested in Music Hall for several years now, but one of the most frustrating things is finding the correct lyrics.

I'm going to throw out a bunch of songs and see if anyone can supply me with the appropriate lyrics.

They are as followed:

-Songs by Harry Champion-

-Boiled Beef and Carrots (I'm missing one verse)
-Cockney Bill of London Town
-Cover it Over Quick Jemima
-Doctor Shelley
-Ginger You're Barmy
-Hey Diddle Diddle (might be "Hi")
-Home Made Sausages
-I Enjoyed It
-I'm Getting Ready for My Mother-in-Law
-I'm Proud of My Old Bald Head
-Let's Have a Basin of Soup
-Standard Bread
-The End of My Old Cigar (latter verse)
-You Can't Help Lauging Can Yer?
-You Don't Want to Keep on Showing It

-Various Songs from WWI-
(Note - All these songs can be found on www.firstworldwar.com)

-Mademoiselle From Armentieres (I'm in need of the ANZAC version I have 2/3 verses, and most of the chorus. Sung by Jack Charman)
-Tow the Row, Row (has nothing to do with British Grenadiers, made by Whit Cunliffe)
-Are We Downhearted (sung by Arthur Boyton)

I'm not hoping for all the lyrics to all the songs, just trying to increase my odds.

Thanks for helping.
