Hi, can anyone help me track down the lyrics to a song please? I think it may be by Beryl Offerty and it's called Everybody's Auntie

The chorus is something like:
They never call me madam
they never call me miss
they never use my christian name
but let me tell you this -
to be called "the other woman"
would be my idea of bliss
I'm everybody's auntie now.

I think it was 'Auntie' Beryl Offredy. Also I think Mal Waite sang it too.

It was written by Beryl Offredy, who used to come to the Herga Folk Club. I haven't got the words, but I can try asking someone (not on Mudcat) who might be able to help.

Thanks for the help, and sorry for mis-spelling Beryl's name - I'd only ever heard it said, not seen it written! If anyone could help track down the lyrics, I'd really appreciate it. I can remember about half of it but there's a few bits where I'm drawing a blank.

How nice to be reminded of this song, I had forgotten all about it. I would love to hear it again.
