Текст песни Paddy Roberts — The Ballad Of Bethnal Green + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
[Verse 1]
G C D C D G
I tell the tale of a jealous male and a maid of Sweet six-teen,
C D
She was blonde and dumb and she lived with her mum
C D G
On the fringe of Beth-nal Green.
A
She worked all week for a rich old Greek
G D
For her dad was on the dole,
G C D
And her one delight was a Friday night
C D G
When she had a little rock and roll.
[Chorus]
C G
To my rit-fal-lal, to my titty-fal-lal,
C D G
To my itty-bitty-fal-dal-day.
C G
To my rit-fal-lal, to my titty-fal-lal,
C D G
To my itty-bitty-fal-dal-day.
[Verse 2]
G C D
Then one fine day in the month of May
C D G
she found her Big ro-mance.
C D
He was dark and sleek with a scar on his cheek
C D G
and a pair of drain-pipe pants.
A D
And she thought, "With you, I could be so true through all the years to come."
G C D
For she loved the gay ab-andoned way
C D G
He chewed his chew-ing gum.
[Chorus]
C G
To my rit-fal-lal, to my titty-fal-lal,
C D G
To my itty-bitty-fal-dal-day.
C G
To my rit-fal-lal, to my titty-fal-lal,
C D G
To my itty-bitty-fal-dal-day.
[Verse 3]
C D C G
It started well be-cause he fell for all her girlish charms
C D
But he had some doubt when he caught her out
C D G
In someone els-e's arms.
A G D
He said, "Look here, you know, my dear, this is going a bit too far."
G C D
Then he went quite white and he sloshed her right
C D D
In the middle of her cha-cha-cha.
[Verse 4]
C D C D G
He went before a man of the law who said, "This will not do!
C D C
I've had enough of the sort of stuff I get from
D G
The likes of you!"
A G D
And was she peeved when he received a longish term in clink?
G C D
In a fit of pique, she married the Greek
C D G
and now she's dressed in mink!
[Chorus]
C G
To my rit-fal-lal, to my titty-fal-lal,
C D G
To my itty-bitty-fal-dal-day.
C G
To my rit-fal-lal, to my titty-fal-lal,
C D G
To my itty-bitty-fal-dal-day.
