Thread Name: Lyr Req: Blanky Cranky Parson
Subject: Blanky Cranky Parson
Gidday folks. I'm looking for the words to an aussie song that a mate of mine, recently deceased used to sing- "The blanky cranky parson". It starts off:

I don't mind blokes that digs and stokes
That fettles or works on derricks
I could even stand a German band
But I draw the line at clerics-

Now strike me pink I'd sooner drink
With a cove sent up for arson
Than a rain-beseechin' preachin' teachin'
Blanky cranky parson....
