Thread Name: Lyr ADD: Will they ever bridge the Humber?
Subject: Lyr Req: Will they ever bridge the Humber?
Back in the early 70's I remember a popular song at the Manchester clubs I used to go to, had the chorus -

Will they ever bridge the Humber? Will they ever span it o'er?
Is it always an exception to the rule?
Is it such a privelige to have a Humber Bridge?
Do we have to keep on going round by Goole?

The bridge was built some years ago now so the song has disappeared but the tune keeps running round in my head. I would love to know what the rest of the words are and who wrote it.
