"ABOUT A LAUGH I ONCE HAD"

         

                         

I THOUGHT TODAY I WOULD TELL YOU MY FRIENDS ABOUT A LAUGH I ONCE HAD.

 

IT WAS ON MY PARTNERS FIFTIETH I WAS ALWAYS PLAYING TRICKS POOR LAD. HE-HE.

 

I WROTE THIS RHYME AND I PLANNED WHAT TO DO AND EVERYTHING TURNED OUT GREAT.

 

AND STRANGELY ENOUGH ON THE SAME  MORNING DON'T YOU THINK THIS WAS FATE.

 

I GOT SOME AIR TICKETS IN THE POST TO GO OUT TO THE USA .

 

HE HAD PLANNED THIS HOLIDAY ONCE AGAIN BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT HIS DADS DAY.

 

WHEN HE HAD SENT THESE TICKETS I HADN'T TOLD HIM  THEN.

 

THEY ARRIVED IN THE POST THE SAME DAY  SO WHEN I OPENED THEM.

 

I COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT HE HAD SENT THESE TICKETS AND WHAT HE HAD PLANNED .

 

TO TAKE US TO THIS PLACE BELOW WHEN OCEANS AWAY WE SPANNED.

 

SO HERE IS WHAT I DID  MY FREINDS WHEN PARNERS  FIFTIETH CAME ALONG.

 

AND AT THE END OF THE DAY WE ALL GOT TOGETHER AND SANG THIS LITTLE SONG.HE-HE.

 

I MADE A GREAT BIG POSTER ABOUT THREE FOOT TALL BY TWO.

 

AND I STUCK MY PARTNERS PICTURE ON FOR EVERYONE TO VIEW.

 

I SENT IT TO HIS WORK FOR HIS BOSS TO PIN UPON THE WALL.

 

IN THE CANTEEN AT LUNCHTIME IT WOULD BE SEEN BY ALL.

 

HE-HE I THOUGHT IT FUNNY AND I LIKED MY LITTLE PLAN.

 

SO  I RANG HIS BOSS THE NIGHT BEFORE AND HE SAID OF COURSE YOU CAN. 

 

WELL WHEN HIS BOSS RECEIVED IT HE PINNED IT NICE AND CLEAR.

 

WITH THE WORDS ABOVE IN GREAT BIG LETTERS LOOK AT THIS POSTER HERE HE-HE.

 

 

 

                  50TH BIRTHDAY WISHES.

 

THERES A GUY WORKS HERE AT HOWELS BLYES

 

WHO TODAY WILL JUST NOT BELIEVE HIS EYES.

 

WHEN HE TAKES A LOOK  ROUND UPON THE WALL.

 

HE'LL SEE DAVIE CROCKETT STANDING TALL.

 

I KNOW WHO'S DONE THIS HE'LL PROBABLY SAY.

 

IT'LL BE MY LASS FOR MY BIRTHDAY.

 

WELL YES YOUR RIGHT I THINK YOU LOOK GREAT.

 

SO I ASKED A FAVOUR OF YOUR MATE.

 

WILL YOU PIN THIS UP FOR ALL TO SEE.

 

HE REPLIED OH! YES JUST RELY ON ME.

 

I COULDN'T RESIST THE DAY TO GO BY.

 

WITHOUT PUTTING A GLINT IN EVERYONES EYE.

 

SO PLEASE DON'T SHOOT US IT'S ALL IN FUN.

 

AS WERE ALL LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR CREAM BUNS.

 

SO LETS ALL SHOUT HIP HIP HOORAY!!

 

IT'S CROCKETTS FIFTIETH WHAT A DAY.

 

WE'LL HAVE A PARTY WITH LOTS OF CHEER .

 

COS WE THINK YOUR THE KING OF THE WILD FRONTIER. HE-HE

 

DAVIE- DAVIE- CROCKETT KING OF THE WILD FRONTIER  HE-HE.

 

 

 

 

WELL AS I WAS SAYING EARLIER  TICKETS CAME FROM MY SON.

 

WE COULDN'T BELIEVE HE HAD SENT THESE OUT AT THE SAME TIME AND WHAT HE HAD DONE.

 

HE HAD PLANNED FOR US TO VISIT HIM AT HOME IN DALLAS THEN.

 

AND TO TAKE US TO DOWN ON A LONG LONG JOURNEY TO SAN ANTONIO WHEN.

 

HIS DAD COULD BE THE REAL DAVIE CROCKETT OUTSIDE THE ALAMO .

 

 

WASN'T THAT JUST SO STRANGE MY FRIENDS AND THIS IS SO TRUE DO YOU KNOW.

 

IF THAT WASN'T FATE I DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS BUT DELIGHTED THAT DAY  OF COURSE.

 

AND TO FINISH IT OFF I PUT IN HIS CARD A RECORDING OF MY VOICE          HE-HE.

 

I  BOUGHT A MUSICAL BIRTHDAY CARD ONE YOU RECORD YOURSELF.

 

AND I SANG ALL THIS SONG INTO IT  AND PLACED IT UPON THE LOUNGE SHELF.

 

WHEN HE OPENED IT UP MY VOICE HE DID HEAR THERE WAS LAUGHTER HEARD ALL AROUND.

 

AT THE END OF THE SONG MYFRIENDS THERE WAS KATH YES ME I AMLAUGHING OUT LOUD.

 

I HAVE ANOTHER PICTURE OF HIM AS A YOUNG ONE WITH NOT A STITCH ON.

 

SO THE VERSE I WROTE IN THE CARD DID SAY DONT SHOOT ME IT'S ALL IN FUN.

 

IF YOU DO WOE BETIDE THE NEXT BIRTHDAY PICTURE YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT IV'E DONE.

 

COS  I'LL PUT A PICTURE IN THE GUARDIAN SHOWING ONE OF YOUR BUM  HE-HE.

 

I STILL HAVE THE CARD HERE IN FRONT OF ME NOW AND IT IS STILL WORKING JUST FINE.

 

I WISH YOU COULD ALL JUST LISTEN TO ME SINGING IT HERE IN "MY SIMPLE RHYME" HE HE.

 

 

 HERE IS THE CARD BELOW  HAAAAAA

 

 AND MY SINGING IS STILL IN TACT.

 

THIS WAS SIX YEARS AGO BY THE WAY!!
