Subject: Bunts, the Nautical Dog From: lazuli42@yahoo.com Date: 31 Dec 98 - 09:57 AM Hello all, At our local pub the band sings a song called Bunts, the Nautical Dog, but I can't find the lyrics for it anywhere. The chorus goes: Poor old Bunts, the Nautical dog He's sure to be sentenced to stoppage of grog Poor old Bunts, for chokin' he's bound For falling in love with a french afghan hound Thanks. |
Subject: RE: Bunts, the Nautical Dog From: Barry Finn Date: 31 Dec 98 - 10:05 AM Very long. It's by Tom Lewis, you can find it on his Tape (CD?) "Sea-Dog, See-Dog!" from Self Propelled Music. I think there was an old thread on this. Do a forum seach, enter in Bunts that should get you there. Barry |
Subject: Lyr Add: BUNTS (THE NAUTICAL DOG) (Tom Lewis) From: MMario Date: 31 Dec 98 - 10:41 AM BUNTS Words & Music by Tom Lewis Bunts was a dachshund who sailed for the Queen; Bahrain to Gibralter, and ports in between, He'd not seen a lamp-post for three weeks or more, So now he's determined to head for the shore. Chorus: Poor old Bunts, the nautical dog, He's sure to be sentenced to Stoppage-Of-Grog; Port old Bunts, for 'chokey' he's bound, For falling in love with a French, Afghan Hound. Now, this tale that I tell you might seem quite risqué, But, when we sailed into the port of Marseille, A poor, simple sea-dog was straightaway seduced, By a saucy Mademoiselle who'd not been introduced. Now, the Mayor and Mayoress and a French Admiral, Arrived to extend some 'l'entent cordiàl', But off the gangway they were nearly sideswiped, 'Cos Bunts wasn't waiting for leave to be piped! He's lay'd alongside of this high-class French bitch, And he's asked her politely if she'd scratch his itch, With his sailor's allure she could not turn him down, Consumation was in full view of the town! So, the Ma'm'selle did her best to please the old salt 'Til a firehose brought their romance to a halt, Then the shore patrol dragged poor old Bunts back on board, While the crew gave three cheers for the first one who scored! So, Bunts lost his good-conduct-stripes and his rate, For putting the Queen's uniform in disgrace, But now throughtout France a new dog-breed abounds, The famous Marseilles-Afghan Short-Legged Hounds! MMario
