marie lloyd - when i take my morning promenade lyrics

[verse one]
since mother eve in the garden long ago
started the fashion; fashion’s been the fashion
she wore a strip that has mystified the priests
still, every season brought a change of green
she’d stare if she came to town
what would mother eve think of my new parisian gown?

[verse two]
fancy the girls in thе prehistoric days
had to wear a bearskin to cover up their fair skin
lately, salome has danced to be sure
wearing just a row of beads and not much more
fancy me dressing like that too
i’m sure the “daily mirror” man would want an interview
[chorus]
as i take my morning promenade
quite a fashion card, on the promenade
now i don’t mind nice boys staring hard
if it satisfies their desire
do you think that my dress is a little bit?
just a little bit + not too much of it!
if it shows my shape just a little bit
that’s the little bit the boys admire!

[verse three]
i’ve heard that grandmother wore a crinoline
then came the bustle + oh! wasn’t that a tussle?
women were tied up and loaded up with dress
but fashion now decrees that she must wear much less
each year her costume grows more brief
i wonder when we’ll be back to the good old+fashioned leaf! oh ho!

[chorus]
as i take my morning promenade
quite a fashion card, on the promenade
now i don’t mind nice boys staring hard
if it satisfies their desire
do you think that my dress is a little bit?
just a little bit + not too much of it!
if it shows my shape just a little bit
that’s the little bit the boys admire!
as i take my morning promenade
quite a fashion card, on the promenade
now i don’t mind nice boys staring hard
if it satisfies their desire
do you think that my dress is a little bit?
just a little bit + not too much of it!
if it shows my shape just a little bit
that’s the little bit the boys admire!
