Oscar Brand - Bell Bottom Trousers lyrics

rate me

Singing Bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

There once was a waitress

Inthe Prince George Hotel

Her mistress was a lady

And her master was a swell

They knew she was a simple girl

And lately from the far

And so they watched her carefully

To heep her from all harm

Singing bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

First come the company

Of the Prince of Wales Huzzahs

They piled into the whorehouse

And they packed along the bars

Many a maid and mistree and a wife

Before them fell but they never made

The waitress from the Prince George Hotel

Singing of bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

The Forty Second come marching into town

And with them come the compliment of

Rapists of renown

They busted every maidenhead that came

Within their spell but they never made

The waitress from the Prince George Hotel

Singing of bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him Climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

One day there came a sailor an ordinary bloke

A bulgin at the trousers with a heart of solid oak

At sea without women for seven years or more

There wasn't any need to ask what he was looking for

Singing bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

He asked her for a cadlestick to light his way to bed

He asked her for a pillow to rest his weary head

And speaking very gently just as if he meant no harm

He asked her if she'd come to bed just so keep him warm

Singing of bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

She lifted up the blanket and a moment there did lie

He was on her, he was in her in the twinkling of an eye

He was out again and in again and plowing up a storm

And the only word she said to him "I hope you're keeping warm"

Singing of bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

Then early in the morning the sailor he arose

Saying here's a two pound my dear for the damage I have caused

If you have a daughter, bounce her on your knee

If you have a son, send the bastard out to sea

Singing of bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do

Now she sits aside the dock a baby on her knee

Awaitimg for the sailing ships acomin home from sea

Awaiting for the jollytars and navy uniform

And all she wants to do my boys is keep the navy warm

Singing of bell bottom trousers

Coats of navy blue

Let him climb the rigging

Like his daddy used to do
