Merry England |
| Waiting on a station platform for a change of train |
| Seems whenever I’m in Preston that it always rains |
| Just today from moving on to play another town |
| I’ve no way of knowing where tonight I lay me down |
| Merry England, though your heart is warm, your hands are cold |
| And I’d like to think I’m growing up, as well as growing old |
| But it’s been weeks since I’ve been smiled on by a face I knew |
| And I’ve started thinking every pretty woman looks like you |
| Blackpool in December found me wandering forlorn |
| Remembering what a child felt when the carnival had gone |
| Can’t gain on the roundabouts or lose upon the swing |
| Too late for the summer days, too early for the spring |
| Merry England, though your heart is warm, your hands are cold |
| And I’d like to think I’m growing up, as well as growing old |
| But it’s been weeks since I’ve been smiled on by a face I knew |
| And I’ve started thinking every pretty woman looks like you |
| Looks like you traveled round beside me in a song |
| Having you to come back home to helped me get along |
| But it’s been weeks since I been smiled on by a face I knew |
| And I’ve started thinking every pretty woman looks like you |
