I combined threads in a (perhaps vain) attempt to avoid confusion.
Cztery Refy now have a Website with the lyrics:
Put Your Shoulder next to Mine
and Pump Away!s³. i mel. trad.
Oh, once I had a girl, - Had a girl!
Oh, once I had a girl, - Had a girl!
Oh, once I had a girl,
And she put me in a whirl,Put your shoulder next to mine and pump away!
Oh, she had me on a string, - On a string!
Put your shoulder next to mine and pump away!
Oh, she had me on a string, - On a string!
Oh, she had me on a string,
And I bought her everything,Put your shoulder next to mine ...
Oh, I bought her presents one, - Presents one!
Oh, I bought her presents one, - Presents one!
Oh, I bought her presents one,
Which she said I shouldn't done,Put your shoulder next to mine ...
Oh, I bought her presents two, - Presents two!
Oh, I bought her presents two, - Presents two!
And then she et me woo,Oh, I bought her presents three, - etc.
She began to fancy me,Oh, l bought her presents four,
And she kissed me at the door,Oh, I bought her presents five,
And she was very much alive,Oh, I bought her presents six,
And that one did the trick,Oh, I bought her presents seven,
And I thought I was in heaven,Oh, I bought her presents eight,
And I took her for me mate,Oh, I bought her presents nine,
And the baby's doing fine,Oh, I bought her presents ten,
And we did it all again,
"Put Your Shoulder next to Mine and Pump Away" - szanta pompowa, któr¹ Simon pozna³ podczas wspólnego œpiewania z angielsk¹ grup¹ "Shanty Crew" na rzecznej barce "Cambria", na Tamizie w 1983r. Podobieñstwo do "Koniczynki" ("Roll Me Over On The Clover") jest ewidentne. Jest to ulubiona szanta Simona, która znalaz³a zastosowanie praktyczne przy obs³udze pompy ... kingstonu na szkunerze "Pioneer".
