05 Jan 16 - 10:52 AM (#3763042) Subject: Origins: Little Tommy Tucker From: False Lankum Desperately Looking for information on the following song and much obliged if anyone could help; Little Tommy Tucker I would if I could, I'd like to be good I'm not that type of a girl. You know what its like to be looked over twice, You know honey baby that its not very nice. You've had your chances at dinners and dances, Everyone knows you're a flirt. You used to hang around with little Tommy Tucker, Everyone knows he's a dirty little f***er. Hanging around on his ice-cream cart, I'm not that type of a girl! Heard a few years ago from an elderly lady called Lily Caffrey singing in a pub in Dublin. Thanks in advance! Ian |
