Turn Erbert's Face To The Wall - Gracie Fields[00:00:00]
Hello everybody[00:00:05]
We once were a most 'appy 'ouse'old [00:00:07]
With smiles on our lips all the time [00:00:10]
Till some cruel an' black-'earted villain[00:00:14]
Showed us the pathway to crime [00:00:17]
Young 'Erbert patronized racin' [00:00:21]
But none of his horses would win [00:00:23]
So he robbed a harmless old bookie [00:00:27]
An' went off to jail for his sin [00:00:31]
Turn 'Erbert's face to the wall Mother [00:00:36]
Nevermore mention his name [00:00:41]
For he's brought disgrace on the family[00:00:46]
An' bowed down our heads with shame [00:00:51]
Father took lessons in forgin' [00:00:58]
Pound notes were his favourite line [00:01:01]
Till he offered one in the courthouse[00:01:05]
When he had to pay a small fine [00:01:08]
Turn Father's face to the wall Mother [00:01:13]
Is photograph turn on its nail [00:01:18]
He won't see the last rose this summer [00:01:23]
They've taken him back to jail [00:01:28]
Rosie she went to the pictures [00:01:35]
An innocent girl she was then [00:01:39]
She forgot what her mother had told her[00:01:42]
About takin' gifts from strange men [00:01:45]
Turn Rosie's face to the wall Mother [00:01:51]
Her picture shall hang on black string [00:01:56]
She may have her furs an' her jewels [00:02:01]
But she's got no wedding ring [00:02:07]
Our house'old is scattered an' broken [00:02:22]
Our future will never the same [00:02:26]
Young Alfred 'as now departed [00:02:29]
An' Fanny has lost her good name [00:02:32]
Turn us all round to the wall Mother [00:02:38]
We're all just as bad as can be [00:02:43]
An' it's all through you meetin' poor Father [00:02:47]
You've ruined the family[00:02:52]
