Brahn Boots - Stanley Holloway[00:00:00]
Our Aunt Hanna's passed away[00:00:05]
We 'ad her funeral today[00:00:07]
And it was a posh affair[00:00:10]
Had to have two p'licemen there[00:00:12]
The 'earse was luv'ly all plate glass[00:00:14]
And wot a corfin oak and brass[00:00:17]
We'd fah-sands weepin' flahers galore[00:00:20]
But Jim our cousin what d'yer fink 'e wore[00:00:23]
Brahn boots[00:00:28]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:00:30]
Fancy coming to a funeral[00:00:33]
In brahn boots[00:00:35]
I will admit 'e 'ad a nice black tie[00:00:37]
Black fingernails and a nice black eye[00:00:40]
But yer can't see people orf when they die[00:00:43]
In brahn boots[00:00:46]
And Aunt 'ad been so very good to 'im[00:00:49]
Done all that any muvver could for 'im[00:00:51]
And Jim her son to show his clars[00:00:54]
Rolls up to make it all a farce[00:00:57]
In brahn boots[00:01:00]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:01:03]
While all the rest[00:01:05]
Wore decent black and mourning suits[00:01:06]
I'll own he didn't seem so gay[00:01:11]
In fact he cried most part the way[00:01:14]
But straight he reg'lar spoilt our day[00:01:18]
Wiv 'is brahn boots[00:01:22]
In the graveyard we left Jim[00:01:26]
None of us said much to him[00:01:29]
Yus we all gave 'im the bird[00:01:31]
Then by accident we 'eard[00:01:35]
'E'd given 'is black boots to Jim Small[00:01:38]
A bloke wot 'ad no boots at all[00:01:41]
So p'raps Aunt Hanna doesn't mind[00:01:44]
She did like people who was good and kind[00:01:48]
But brahn boots[00:01:53]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:01:56]
Fancy coming to a funeral[00:01:59]
In brahn boots[00:02:01]
And we could 'ear the neighbours all remark[00:02:03]
What 'im chief mourner Wot a blooming lark[00:02:06]
Why 'e looks more like a Bookmaker's clerk[00:02:10]
In brahn boots[00:02:13]
That's why we 'ad to be so rude to 'im[00:02:16]
That's why we never said Ow do to 'im[00:02:20]
We didn't know he didn't say[00:02:24]
He'd give 'is other boots away[00:02:27]
But brahn boots[00:02:33]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:02:38]
While all the rest[00:02:45]
Wore decent black and mourning suits[00:02:48]
But some day up at Heavens gate[00:02:55]
Poor Jim all nerves will stand and wait[00:02:59]
'Til an angel whispers[00:03:06]
Come in Mate[00:03:14]
Where's yer brahn boots[00:03:17]
