12 Nov 98 - 12:24 PM (#45121) Subject: Help - Lyrics to 4 songs From: Steve Drastically on the look-out for the complete lyrics to 4 songs: A parody of "Early one Morning" - beginning "Early one morning, just as the pub was opening..." A shanty (?) with words similar to "Well they call me hanging Johnny, away boys away..." A song of which I have little information (no title or anything) the final verse runs something like: "You haven't an arm, you haven't a leg, the enemy nearly slew you, you'll have to go out on the streets and beg, O Johnny what will (has?) happened to you?" Complete lyrics to Paddy's Sicknote. Thanks Steve. |
