Not strictly folk but I was asked - in a pub - by a German of all nationalities - for the lyrics for Das Army Song - Who do you think you are kidding Mr Hitler!

(I'd even been playing for two germnan dances this evening - accordion not fiddle!!!)

We got it all apart from about three words after 'Mr Brown comes home on the 821' blah de bal de blah 'then he's ready with his gun'!!!!

Any Ideas?

I gave him this address so he may log in as guest and find this!

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE KIDDING, MR. HITLER?
Theme Song from Dad's Army (1968-1977)
(Lyrics by Jimmy Perry / Music by Jimmy Perry and Derek Taverner)
As sung by Bud Flanagan

Who do you think you are kidding, Mr. Hitler,
If you think we're on the run?
We are the boys who will stop your little game.
We are the boys who will make you think again.
'Cause who do you think you are kidding, Mr. Hitler,
If you think old England's done?

Mr. Brown goes off to town
On the eight twenty-one,
But he comes home each evening
And he's ready with his gun.

So watch out, Mr. Hitler.
You have met your match in us.
If you think you can crush us,
We're afraid you've missed the bus.
'Cause who do you think you are kidding, Mr. Hitler,
If you think old England's done?

There was a poster on the march in Londonn on Saturday saying "Who do you think you are kidding Mr Blair?"

I don't think they ever had the second verse on the programme credits.

Here is Dad's Army Appreciation Society

Brakn, if you put Lyr Add: (with the colon) in the Subject box, it makes it easier for the Harvesters to find later. That's all.
