Subject: Lyr Add: Me, George and William From: Ben Cribb Date: 11 Apr 10 - 03:29 PM My Uncle Paul has sang this song for decades which is a really good folk song. However, there is now formal record of its existence. So there is a danger that unless that these lyrics are written down and posted on the net they could be lost forever: Now done we, tis twelve months come Saturday Since Samuel our Inn Keeper died and now there be a new fangled manager in the old Pig and Whistle do by Chorus: And there's me and there's George and there's William and the new fangled manager says we What before made the beer and the sausages the same as they used for to be Our Samuel kept pigs and he fatted them His bacon and sausage was prime But the new fangled managers sausages Have never been pigs in their lives Chorus Our Samuel was fond of his customers They numbered one hundred and three But the new fangled swindling manager Drew water for liquor for me Chorus Our Samuel was fond of his women folk His wife she was buxom and gay But the new fangled managers manager Be a terror by night and by day Chorus In the golden par parlor of Heaven Our Samuel forever will dwell While the new fangled swindling manager Drinks brimstone and soda in Hell So there's me and there's George and there's William In the golden bar parlor you'll see Making free with the beer and the sausages While the women folk sits on our knee |
