From: GUEST,David Nuttall, Wakefield The next to come in had a banjo Who's playing forced the drinkers to go Who's playing forced the drinkers to go To make a jovial crew He picked in C and then in G And emptied the bar as quick as could be When Jones' ale was new, me boys When Jones' ale was new. The next to come in had a guitar But this poor guy...he was no star But this poor guy he was no star To make a jovial crew His strumming was loud and very flat And one and all got sick of that When Jones'ale was new me boys When Jones'ale was new. The next to come in had a bodrain And no one seemed to be a fan And no one seemed to be a fan To make a jovial crew He asked them all if he might play But they replied " SOME OTHER DAY " when Jones' ale was new me boys When Jones' ale was new. The last to come in was a singer And he ,too, was a ringer And he ,too, was a ringer To make a jovial crew He said " I'LL SING YOU JONES' ALE " The punters then all turned quite pale When Jones' ale was new me boys When Jones' ale was new . Hope this helps a bit. DAVID |

From: Uncle Tone The next to come in was an ad man, looking rather a sad man We said, 'you're looking bad, man' among the jovial crew He flung his briefcase to the ground Then called for gin and tonic all round For Saatchi stole the account he'd found When Johnson' ale was new The next to come in was a Tory with a very haughty story She covered herself in glory among the jovial crew She claimed we are the lazy poor And flung a pittance to the floor 'Grovel if you want some more!' When Johnson's ale was new The next to come in was a Corbinite, saying, 'It'll be alright If we outvote the Far Right with all the jovial crew I'll nationalise the railways And give the NHS a raise And cure us all of May's hard ways While Johnson's ale's still new |

From: GUEST,Janey The next to come in was a banker A sly deceiving xxxxxx A sly deceiving xxxxxx Come to rob all the jovial crew With his mortgages, loans and credit scams The sheeple swallowed his lies like lambs They never noticed he'd stole their lands When Jones's ale was new me boys When Jones's ale was new Not at-all funny really... |
