I'm sure I posted this version of Sweet Violets to an earlier thread but it's not one of the three in the DT. One of the first "naughty" songs I learned which my grandpa taught me (to grannie's disgust!).

SWEET VIOLETS
(Dedicated to the workers at Minworth sewage works)

They say that your father's a muckman
And works in the middens all night
And when he comes home in the evening
He's covered all over in—

CHORUS: Sweet Violets
Sweeter than the roses
Covered all over from head to toe
In sweet violets

When he comes home for his breakfast
There in his chair he will sit
Have four or five mouthfuls of breakfast
And four or five mouthfuls of— CHORUS

They say that he's kind to his children
To please him they try all their might
But when he's dead, they will bury him
In four or five acres of— CHORUS
