[ti:With My Little Ukelele In My Hand] [ar:George Formby] [al:The Window Cleaner] [offset:0] [00:00.69]With My Little Ukelele In My Hand - George Formby [00:08.16]Now everybody's got a crazy notion of their own [00:11.23] [00:11.77]Some like to mix up with a crowd, [00:13.92]Some like to be alone [00:14.67] [00:15.49]It's no one else's business [00:16.50] [00:17.26]As far as I can see [00:18.62] [00:19.14]But every time that [00:20.53]I go out the people stare at me [00:22.76]With my little ukulele in my hand, [00:24.82] [00:26.56]Of course the people do not understand [00:28.39] [00:30.12]Some say why don't you be a scout, [00:31.75]Why don't you read a book? [00:33.20] [00:33.73]But I get lots more pleasure [00:35.39]When I'm playing with my uke. [00:36.79] [00:37.32]Of course I take no notice you can tell [00:39.47] [00:41.30]For mother's sound advice will always stand. [00:43.09] [00:44.36]She said "My boy do what [00:45.81]I say and you'll never go astray [00:47.53] [00:48.07]If you keep your ukulele in your hand, yes son [00:51.67]Keep your ukulele in your hand." [00:53.76] [00:55.79]While walking down the prom [00:57.51]Last night as peaceful as can be [00:59.07]When some young girl said [01:00.21]"what about a stroll down by the sea?" [01:02.81]She said her name was Jane and [01:04.45]That she'd just come for the day. [01:05.90] [01:06.51]She looked so young and harmless [01:08.11]That I couldn't turn away [01:09.59]So with my little ukulele in my hand, [01:11.92] [01:13.92]I took a stroll with Jane along the sand. [01:16.10] [01:17.36]We walked along for miles [01:18.64]Without a single care or frown [01:20.38] [01:20.99]But when we reached the sand hills [01:22.93]She said "Come on let's sit down." [01:24.57]I felt so shy and bashful sitting there, [01:26.88] [01:28.29]Cause the things I said she didn't understand [01:30.56] [01:31.72]She said "Your love just turns me dizzy, [01:33.53] [01:34.13]Come along big boy get busy" [01:35.60]But I kept my ukulele in my hand, yes sir, [01:39.33]I kept my ukulele in my hand. [01:41.96] [01:43.10]Made up my mind that [01:44.36]I'd get wed some eighteen months ago. [01:46.72]I also bought a book about the things [01:49.07]You want to know. [01:50.26]But just about a week ago I got a awful fright, [01:53.79]I had to get dressed quickly in the middle of the night. [01:57.17]And with my little ukulele in my hand, [01:59.58] [02:01.32]I ran along the road for Dr. Brand [02:03.36] [02:04.79]It didn't take him long to get his little bag of tools. [02:07.56] [02:08.30]I held his hat and coat and let [02:10.29]Him have my book of rules. [02:11.88]Out of the bedroom door he looked and smiled [02:14.19] [02:15.62]He said, "Come inside [02:16.63]And see your wife and child." [02:17.88] [02:19.12]My heart it jumped with joy, [02:20.74]I could see it was a boy [02:22.55]For he had a ukulele in his hand, oh baby [02:25.58] [02:26.52]He had a ukulele in his hand. [02:28.59]
