Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Blackpool Belle
Subject: Lyr Add: THE BLACKPOOL BELLE (from H Broadbent)
I heard this on Spotify:
THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
As sung by Howard Broadbent on "The Blackpool Belle: Songs from Lancashire, UK" (2012)
[The words are the same as those posted above except for this verse:]
2. We had Tennessee Ernie, Frankie Laine, and Crying Johnny Ray.
We played the jukebox over again like they do today.
Girls wore stockings and suspenders; oi(?), I had a time,
Pretending I was Nat King Cole and Dickie Valentine.
