21 Oct 06 - 02:14 PM (#1865172) Subject: Lyr Add: MY GIRL'S A YORKSHIRE GIRL From: Zany Mouse Is this it? MY GIRL'S A YORKSHIRE GIRL Two young fellows were talking about Their girls, girls, girls — Sweethearts they'd left behind, Sweethearts for whom they pined. One said, "My little shy little lass Has a waist so trim and small. Gray are her eyes so bright, But best, best of all... "My girl's a Yorkshire girl — Yorkshire through and through. My girl's a Yorkshire girl, Eh! by gum, she's a champion! Though she's a factory lass And wears no fancy clothes, Still I've a sort of a Yorkshire relish For my little Yorkshire Rose." When the first finished singing the praise Of Rose, Rose, Rose, Poor number two looked vexed, Saying in tones perplexed: "My lass works in a factory too And has also eyes of gray; Her name is Rose as well, And strange, strange to say... "My girl's a Yorkshire girl — Yorkshire through and through. My girl's a Yorkshire girl, Eh! by gum, she's a champion! Though she's a factory lass And wears no fancy clothes, Still I've a sort of a Yorkshire relish For my little Yorkshire Rose." To a cottage in Yorkshire they hied To Rose, Rose, Rose, Meaning to make it clear Which was the boy most dear. Rose, their Rose, didn't answer the bell, But her husband did instead. Loudly he sang to them As off, off they fled... "My girl's a Yorkshire girl — Yorkshire through and through. My girl's a Yorkshire girl, Eh! by gum, she's a champion! Though she's a factory lass And wears no fancy clothes, Still I've a sort of a Yorkshire relish For my little Yorkshire Rose." Rhiannon |

21 Oct 06 - 02:26 PM (#1865180) Subject: RE: Where can I find - My Girls a Yorkshire From: Mick Pearce (MCP) Lyrics and sound clip (last verse+chorus) are available here: My Girl's A Yorkshire Girl - Music In The Works of James Joyce. There is a CD of the song available there (though it looks like US). If you're looking for the sheet music, there is a version in The New Busker's Fake Book at MusicRoom - click more to see the contents. (I have the earlier edition of this, but I'm afraid that song's not in it). At £39.95 it's pricey for one song. If you're really desperate, I could supply you with the melody and chords from the sound clip. Mick |

Anyone seen a copy? My notes are here https://folksongandmusichall.com/index.php/my-girls-a-yorkshire-girl/ |
