It's Danny Boy... but not as we know it

From: YorkshireYankee

Got the idea for this after hearing someone introduce the tune (a.k.a. Londonderry Air) at a folk club a few weeks ago
and decided I just had to give it a go... hope folks enjoy it.

Notes: It is written/sung in "Franglais"; "La Manche" is the French name for the English Channel.

LONDON DERRIERE
(Vikki Appleton Fielden)

When ah was young, Ah left mah 'ome in gay Pah-ree
Ah crossed La Manche, to leeve in Angleterre
To mah soorpreeze, zee lovely girls of London
Are tres gentilles, and belles beyond compare

So when Ah go to bed mah Rose Anglai-seh
Oh voulez-vous accompahny me zair?
For zough j'adore les jolies filles Francai-seh
Zair's nossing cahn soorpass a London derriere!

Grat minds....
LONDON DERRIERE
( W.J.Bethancourt III)

I watch you walk upon the streets of London.
Your mini-skirt stretched tight, and looking sweet.
I watch you walk, and walk into a lampost.
I didn't see, upon the London street..
So turn your back, and wiggle softly from me!.
With mini-skirt, (perhaps, no underwear!).
Your legs are great! But, by the Gods above me!.
I watch your wondrous London derriere!

The Paris girls are wonders full of beauty,.
And California grows the Long-stemmed L.A. rose,.
Berlin nights are full of life, and lovely,.
But London girls don't wear no panty-hose!.
So turn your back, and wiggle softly from me!.
And let me watch, and dream a dream so rare:.
In my hotel, you naked there above me.
Sit on my face with your London derriere!..

(Tune: "Londonderry Air" aka "Danny Boy").

That's a bit cruder, Dick... I like YY's take better.

That pun occurred to me the first time I heard "The Town I Loved So Well":

There was music there in the Derry air...

Thanks, guys!

BTW, I meant to include my name with it (so that anyone just stumbling upon it would not just attribute it to "anonymous"), but I forgot.

Perhaps a friendly Mud elf would be willing to add the following line to my original post?:
