Ernie (The Fastest Milkman In The West) - Jukebox Junctions[00:00:00]

You could hear the hoof beats pound[00:00:05]

As they raced across the ground[00:00:06]

And the clatter of the wheels as they[00:00:09]

Spun round and round[00:00:10]

And he galloped into market street[00:00:12]

His badge upon his chest[00:00:14]

His name was Ernie[00:00:15]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west[00:00:17]

Now Ernie loved a widow a lady known as Sue[00:00:21]

She lived all alone in Liddley Lane at number twenty two[00:00:24]

They said she was too good for him[00:00:28]

She was haughty proud and chic[00:00:30]

But Ernie got his cocoa there three times every week[00:00:32]

They called him Ernie Ernie[00:00:36]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west[00:00:40]

She said she'd like to bathe in milk he said[00:00:43]

All right sweetheart[00:00:46]

And when he'd finished work[00:00:47]

One night he loaded up his cart[00:00:49]

He said do you want it pasturize[00:00:51]

'Cause pasturize is best[00:00:53]

She says[00:00:55]

Ernie I'll be happy if it comes up to my chest[00:00:55]

That tickled old Ernie Ernie[00:00:59]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west[00:01:02]

Woo[00:01:06]

Now Ernie had a rival an evil-looking man[00:01:08]

Called Two-Ton Ted from[00:01:12]

Teddington and he drove the baker's van[00:01:13]

He tempted her with his treacle tarts and[00:01:16]

His tasty wholemeal bread[00:01:18]

When she seen the size of his hot meat[00:01:20]

Pies it very near turned her head[00:01:22]

She nearly swooned at his macaroon and he said[00:01:24]

If you treat me right[00:01:27]

You'll have hot rolls every morning[00:01:28]

And crumpets every night[00:01:30]

He knew once she sampled his layer[00:01:32]

Cake he'd have his wicked way[00:01:34]

But all Ernie had to offer was a pint of milk each day[00:01:36]

Poor Ernie Ernie[00:01:40]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west[00:01:44]

Woo[00:01:47]

One lunch time Ted saw[00:01:49]

Ernie's horse and cart outside her door[00:01:50]

And It drove him mad to find it was[00:01:53]

Still there at half past four[00:01:55]

And as he lept down from his van[00:01:57]

Hot blood through his veins did course[00:01:59]

And he went across to[00:02:01]

Ernie's cart and didn't half kick his orse[00:02:02]

Whose name was Trigger Trigger[00:02:05]

And he pulled the fastest milk cart in the west[00:02:08]

Now Ernie rushed out into the street[00:02:12]

His gold top in his hand[00:02:14]

He said If you wanna marry[00:02:16]

Susie you'll fight for her like a man[00:02:17]

Oh why don't we play cards for her[00:02:20]

He sneeringly replied[00:02:22]

And just to make it interesting[00:02:23]

We'll have a shilling on the side[00:02:25]

Now Ernie dragged him from[00:02:28]

His van and beneath the blazing sun[00:02:30]

They stood there face to face[00:02:32]

And Ted went for his bun[00:02:34]

But Ernie was too quick[00:02:36]

Things didn't go the way Ted planned[00:02:37]

And a strawberry-flavoured[00:02:40]

Yogurt sent it spinning from his hand[00:02:41]

Now Susie ran between them[00:02:44]

And tried to keep them apart[00:02:46]

And Ernie pushed her aside[00:02:48]

And a rock cake caught him underneath his heart[00:02:50]

And he looked up in pained[00:02:52]

Surprise and the concrete hardened crust[00:02:54]

Of a stale pork pie[00:02:56]

Caught him in the eye and Ernie bit the dust[00:02:57]

Poor Ernie Ernie[00:03:00]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west[00:03:04]

Now Ernie was only fifty chird he didn't wanna die[00:03:08]

And now he's gone to make deliveries[00:03:12]

In that milk round in the sky[00:03:14]

Where the customers are angels[00:03:16]

And ferocious dogs are banned[00:03:18]

And the milkman's life is full of fun in that fairy[00:03:20]

Dairy land[00:03:23]

But a woman's needs are many fold[00:03:25]

And soon she married Ted[00:03:27]

But strange things happened on their wedding[00:03:29]

Night as they lay in their bed[00:03:31]

Was that the trees a-rustling[00:03:33]

Or the hinges of the gate[00:03:35]

Or Ernie's ghostly gold tops a-rattling in their crate[00:03:37]

They won't forget Ernie Ernie[00:03:41]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west[00:03:45]
