Thread Name: Lyr Req: Tavistock Goosey Fair (C. John Trythall)
Subject: Tavistock Goosey Fair
Each day on my way to work, I take a street called "Tavistock" and it reminds me of a song I heard in England about 20 years ago (title above). Its a humorous tale that starts out something like:

Aye there was the twa of us, Bill Tumperdown and me...

A lot of it was in dialect--Geordie, perhaps? Looking for lyrics and other infor. Thanks!
