The moon shines bright on Nellie Cartwright.
She couldn't fart right.
She took a car valve.
Shoved it up herself.

Her pressure was to high
Now Nellie's in the sky.
She is in orbit
Just like John Corbitt.
She's goin' round and round
And everything is brown.

The moon is thick and hazy
Its Piccadilly daisy,
But no one can see it
because of all the shi..

Oh there once was an Indian maid
Who said she wasn't afraid
To like on her back in a cold dark shack
And let the cowboys play (with her tooney)

And then to her surprise
Her belly began to rise
And out of her cunt came a four legged runt
With a dick between its' eyes.

Oh the moon shines bright on Nelly Cartwrite
She couldn't fart right
Her ass was air-tight
(Like a frog)

And venereal disease was really spreading
As she was bedding
Everyone in site.

Some while back I tried to find the rest of "Nellie Cartwright," but was never able to find more than the first two lines of the chorus:

Oh the moon shines bright on Nellie Cartwright,
She couldn't fart right, her ass was airtight ...

The Evansville Transit Authority mp3 cited above seems to have the same problem. It fudges the rest of the chorus, and for verses uses variants of the standard bawdy parody of "Redwing" beginning:

There once was an Indian maid who always was afraid
That some buckaroo would shove it up her flue       etc.

I think there's a good chance that the "Nelly Cartwright" lines may never have been longer -- one of those really short musical jokes.

Out of frustration with searching, I finally gave up and wrote "the rest." I humbly offer it here to those (probably quite few) who've always wished "Nelly Cartwright" was a complete song.

**WARNING: X-RATED LANGUAGE AHEAD**

NELLY CARTWRIGHT

Traditional (first 2 lines of chorus), remainder of lyrics by Bob Coltman.
Tune: "Redwing."

A girl I once adored, although I never scored,
Her name was Nell, she kissed me very well,
Oh hell, I fell like a ton for pretty Nell,
But she could not pass air, the hole just wasn't there,
She swelled so big, yes, bigger than a pig,
She made the people stare.

Cho:
Oh, the moon shone down on Nelly Cartwright,
She couldn't fart right, her ass was airtight,
For her Maker hadn't made that part right,]
And she stayed sealed tight till the day she died.

And Nelly couldn't shit, no, not a single bit,
She tried and tried to pry her flier wide,
But everything just ground around inside,
And that is not the worst, it seemed that she was cursed,
For she swelled so large, unable to discharge,
At last poor Nellie burst.

Request from a fellow Morris dancer - it's a Rugby song from the '60s, a parody of "Redwing". All he can remember is the start of the chorus

Oh the moon shines tonight on Nellie Cartwright
She couldn't fart right
Her arse was airtight

Wassail! V
