Thread Name: What are they singing in English Pubs?
Subject: RE: What are they singing in English Pubs?
When I posted the words to "Man of Kent" above I'd just learned the song from Stuart Pendrill, who messed with the words a bit...

The correct (Kenward-penned) words are:

"welcoming white cliffs of Dover" should be "welcoming sea cliffs of Dover"

And ""celebrate willow on leather" should be "celebrate willow and weather"

Bob deliberately DIDN'T use "white" and "leather" as he felt these were too cliched.

So sorry for the slight mistakes in the previous post.
