lonnie donegan - does your chewing gum lose it's flavor (on the bedpost over night) lyrics

Loading...

does your chewing gum lose its flavor (on the bedpost overnight)
lonnie donegan & his skiffle group

oh me oh my oh you
whatever shall i do?
hallelujah, the question is peculiar
i’d give a lot of dough
if only i could know
the answer to my question
is it yes or is it no?

chorus:
does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
if your mother says don’t chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left & right?
does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

here comes a blushing bride
the groom is by her side
up to the altar, just as steady as gibraltar
the groom has got the ring
& it’s such a pretty thing
but as he slips it on her finger
the choir begins to sing:

(chorus)

now the nation rise as one
to send their wanted son
up to the white house, yes, the nation’s only white house
to voice their discontent
unto the pres-i-dent
the bonny burning question, what has swept this continent?
(lonnie speaks: if tin whistles are made of tin, what do they make fog h-rns out of?
another man shouts: boom boom!)

(chorus)

on the bedpost overnight
(man: h-llo there, i love you & the one who holds you tight!
lonnie: monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, sat’day night!)
on the bedpost overnight
(man: a dollar is a dollar & a dime is a dime!
lonnie: he’d sing another chorus but he hasn’t got the time!)
on the bedpost overnight, yeah!

from: collins cr-po
