A Quick One While He's Away |
| Her man’s been gone |
| For nearly a year |
| He was due home yesterday |
| But he ain’t here |
| Her man’s been gone |
| For nigh on a year |
| He was due home yesterday |
| But he ain’t here |
| Down your street your crying is a well-known sound |
| Your street is very well-known throughout your town |
| Your town is very famous for the little girl |
| Whose crying can be heard all around the world |
| Fa la la la la la |
| Fa la la la la Fa la la la la la Fa la la la la We have a remedy |
| You’ll appreciate |
| No need to be so sad |
| It’s only late |
| We’ll bring you flowers and things |
| Help pass the time |
| We’ll give him eagle’s wings |
| So he can fly to you |
| Fa la la la la la |
| Fa la la la la Fa la la la la la Fa la la la la la We have a remedy |
| Fa la la la la la la We have a remedy |
| Fa la la la la la la We have a remedy |
| Fa la la la la la la We have a remedy |
| We have |
| Little girl, why don’t you stop your crying? |
| I’m gonna make you feel alright |
| My name is Ivor |
| I’m an engine driver |
| I know him well |
| I know why you feel blue |
| Just 'cause he’s late |
| Don’t mean he’ll never get through |
| He told me he loves you, he ain’t no liar, I ain’t either |
| So let’s have a smile for an old engine driver |
| Let’s have a smile for an old engine driver |
| (Train noises) |
| Please take a sweet |
| Come take a walk with me We’ll sort it out |
| Back at my place, maybe |
| It’ll come right, you ain’t no fool, I ain’t either |
| So why not be nice to an old engine driver? |
| Better be nice to an old engine driver |
| We’ll soon |
| (Come on, old horse) |
| We’ll soon be home |
| We’ll soon be home |
| We’ll soon |
| We’ll soon, soon, soon be home |
| We’ll soon |
| We’ll soon, soon, soon be Dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang |
| (Cellos, please) |
| Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello |
| Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello |
| I can’t believe it Do my eyes deceive me? |
| Am I back in your arms? |
| Away from all harm? |
| It’s like a dream to be with you again |
| I can’t believe that I’m with you again |
| I missed you and I must admit |
| I kissed a few and once did sit |
| On Ivor the engine driver’s lap |
| And later with him, had a nap |
| You are forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
| Forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
| Forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven |
| Forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven |
| Forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven |
| Forgiven, forgiven, forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
| Forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven |
| You are forgiven |
