Subject: Lyr Req: The Two Parsons
This is a naughty, risqué (but yet very humorous), song about two clergymen, vicars whatever? The basic premis is that they are comparing notes on the various ladies of the congregation as they leave a particular morning or evening service. The two miscreants devise a system of identifying the ladies they’ve had “relations with” (at whatever level).
One will say “Ding” as a lady they are familiar with passes them, the other will say “Dong!” I did say it was naughty! To the extent that one suggests in the very last line that he is familiar with the wife of his colleague “ ….. and she’s a real dinger donger, Ding Dong!”

I heard the performed by Bill Redhead at the Marsden Inn Folk Club in South Shields. Bill wasn’t a regular contributor but I vividly remember him performing this in costume suggesting that this was a party night (think Mark Williams as Father Brown).

Can anyone help with lyrics of this very numerous song?
