Subject: Lyr Req: 'Arry 'ad an 'awk From: GUEST,Guest Banksie Date: 26 Aug 13 - 04:01 AM Seems like my cookie's been eaten..... anyway, this is not exactly a lyric, more a short monologue my father used to say when I was small, and I can no only remember bits of it. It is about Harry, and his Hawk, and contains the following lines that I can remember: 'Arry 'ad an 'awk 'Arry put the 'awk in an 'at box 'Arry 'it the 'awk' on the 'ead wiv a 'eavy, 'ard, 'ot, 'ammer Does this ring any bells with anyone?

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Arry 'ad an 'awk From: Jim Dixon Date: 31 Aug 13 - 01:16 PM It seems as if this poem ought to be in Mr. Punch's Cockney Humour (1910) – but I can't find it there. |
