Thread Name: ADD: King of the Ditch Diggers (Graeme Miles)
Subject: Lyr Req: King of Ditch Diggers
I'll try this again with the right heading this time!
Can anyone help with this. One of Graham Miles'. Begins somewhat after this fashion:
When I was a lad I was told by my dad That I'd had enough now of learning. It was out of the school and onto the tools, For it's time that a wage I was earning.
The dole office man with his cards in his hand Said, 'There's no place for plumbers or fitters. You're a big strapping lad with a good pair of arms: So I'll set you to digging the ditches.'
Can anyone supply the rest please?
(If anyone's in contact with Robin Dale, he'll know!)
