Diddy Levine Lyrics

2 ContributorsDiddy Levine LyricsIn the later forties
When Diddy Levine lived with Eunice King
He gave her the ring that she wore
Janice the smiling daughter
Who came from a marriage way before
But Eunice was the father that she always saw
Though they never never never never told her
She always knew the score
You see kids were so much wiser after the wars
But Diddy hadn't have enough
She had to get some more
On a ration piece of paper, she wrote "Eunice, I'm not sure"
And with her child in her arms
She went looking for a fling
Besides, she didn't like the name Mrs. King
The first time that she heard Damper Dan
Was on the radio
Crooning at a volume that was way, way down low
Diddy was surprised to hear that Damper's name was Dan
Soon after he was a calling
And he asked, begged and pleaded for her hand
Damper's heart was dampened
When Diddy answered "no, no, no, no, no"
But if she changed her mind, she said "Dan, I'll let you know"
With her child in her arms
She went looking for man
Besides, she didn't like the name Damper Dan
Janice the smiling daughter grew up to be a teenage queen
Through all of her mother's lovers
She kept the name Levine
Behind the picture house she first made her scene
With a boy called Allister
Who was dating a friend called Celine
And Celine wasn't mad when Janice came in between
But Allister got scared when he heard
And he joined the USA Marines
Inheritance, you see, runs through every family
Who is to say what is to be is any better
Over and over it goes, goodness and badness winds blow
Over and over, over and over
Over and over and over and over and over and over and over
The good and the bad winds blow

Eire Lyrics

3 ContributorsEire LyricsIn the land of Eireann
Sat the high king
Faced with the problems
The dreaded vikings
Gather all the men folk
Speaking the Celtic tongue
The land is Eireann
The land is young
Stands Red O'Donnell
Fighting the Saxon foe
With Hugh O'Neil
Oh
All along the north land
They fight bitterly
The land is Eireann
The land is free

Clifton Grange Hotel Lyrics

2 ContributorsClifton Grange Hotel LyricsPack up your bags
Leave family society
Oh come with me
Where they treat you well
At the door
Old Lou the jew
Will welcome you
In the corner lies the hotel
At this refuge of mercy
Head of the table
King of laughter
Percy
And if you speak too much
In company
You'll soon be heard
By that mynah bird and whiskey
At the top
You'll find another brother
Go ask my mother
She knows them all very well...hotel

Saga of the Ageing Orphan Lyrics

2 ContributorsSaga of the Ageing Orphan LyricsFather and I waved goodbye
As we went to look
Uncle Peter was writing a book
And his mama was starting to cook
And she's ageing
We had come in search of one
Who evades us all
Never heeds the call
If only someone could stall
This ageing
So I'll go and hope and know
That my time is near
Laughing through the years
Having only fears
Of ageing

Remembering Lyrics

3 ContributorsRemembering LyricsRemember those golden days
We used to walk hand in hand
I was your friend, your fool, your lover
I was your man
I can see you then
Smiling, looking straight at me
You caught me unawares, I blushed
Let's sit beneath this tree
I can't get over the change in you
I can't get over the change in me
And I keep on remembering the old days
I keep on remembering the old ways
I can recall you running to a sweet shop
You stopped
Bought me something
And you handed it to me
You were my girlfriend then
The first that I ever had
The first that I ever kissed
And the first to make me sad
I can't get over the change in you
I can't get over the change in me
I keep on remembering the old days
I keep on remembering the old ways
Oh yeah
I keep on remembering
I keep on remembering
Oh yeah
I keep on remembering the old days
I keep on remembering
Your pretty dress
With the zip up the back
I used to love you like that
I used to love you like that
Oh yeah
I keep on remembering
I keep on remembering all about you
