I Took My Harp To A Party - Gracie Fields[00:00:00]

Christmas is coming Christmas is coming[00:00:04]

Christmas is coming again[00:00:08]

But that never thrills me[00:00:11]

The thought of it chills me[00:00:13]

I tell you it fills me with pain[00:00:15]

It makes me remember a Christmas gone by[00:00:19]

When I was extremely upset[00:00:22]

A night in December an evening that I[00:00:26]

Would very much rather forget[00:00:29]

For I took me harp to a party[00:00:34]

But nobody asked me to play[00:00:38]

The others were jolly and earty[00:00:41]

But I wasn't feeling so gay[00:00:45]

They might have said play us a tune we can sing[00:00:49]

But somehow I don't think they noticed the thing[00:00:52]

I took me harp to a party[00:00:56]

But nobody asked me to play[00:01:00]

So I took the darned thing away[00:01:04]

They asked Mrs Morgan to play her mouth-organ[00:01:09]

And somebody else did a dance[00:01:13]

They let Mrs Carter perform a sonata[00:01:17]

But I wasn't given a chance[00:01:21]

A north country person called Sandy McPherson[00:01:24]

Played bagpipes and took off his coat[00:01:28]

While both the Miss Fawcetts bust[00:01:32]

Out of their corsets[00:01:34]

In trying to take a top note[00:01:36]

But I took me harp to a party[00:01:41]

Nobody asked me to play[00:01:45]

The others were jolly and earty[00:01:49]

But I wasn't feeling so gay[00:01:53]

I felt so ashamed at not striking a note[00:01:57]

That I tried to hide the thing under me coat[00:02:00]

I took me harp to a party[00:02:04]

But nobody asked me to play[00:02:08]

So I took the darned thing away[00:02:12]

They sang home sweet home[00:02:17]

And The Banks of loch lomond[00:02:19]

And All the king's horses then trees[00:02:21]

While nephews and nieces kept playing their pieces[00:02:25]

And spreading their jam on the keys[00:02:29]

A daughter called Lena played her concertina[00:02:33]

We all played ridiculous games[00:02:36]

Til old Mr Dyer set his whiskers on fire[00:02:41]

And a fire engine played on the flames[00:02:45]

But I took me harp to a party[00:02:49]

But nobody asked me to play[00:02:53]

So I took the darned thing away[00:02:56]
