London Pride - Noel Coward and Orchestra/John Singer[00:00:00]

Written by：Noel Coward[00:00:02]

London pride has been handed down to us[00:00:08]

London pride is a flower that's free[00:00:12]

London pride means our own dear town to us[00:00:15]

And our pride it for ever will be[00:00:18]

Woa Liza see the coster barrows[00:00:22]

The vegetable the marrows and the fruit piled high[00:00:24]

Woa Liza little London sparrows[00:00:28]

Covent garden market where the costers cry[00:00:31]

Cockney feet mark the beat of history[00:00:35]

Every street pins a memory down[00:00:39]

Nothing ever can quite replace[00:00:42]

The grace of London town[00:00:46]

There's a little city flower every spring unfailing[00:00:52]

Growing in the crevices by some London railing[00:00:56]

Though it has a latin name in town and the country side[00:01:01]

We in England call it London pride[00:01:07]

London pride has been handed down to us[00:01:14]

London pride is a flower that's free[00:01:17]

London pride means our own dear town to us[00:01:20]

And our pride it for ever will be[00:01:23]

Hey lady when the day is dawning see the policeman yawning[00:01:27]

On his lonely beat[00:01:31]

Gay lady mayfair in the morning[00:01:34]

Hear your footsteps echo in the empty street[00:01:37]

Early rain and the pavement's glistening[00:01:41]

All park lane in a shimmering gown[00:01:45]

Nothing ever could break or harm[00:01:48]

Of the charm of London town[00:01:52]

In our city darkened now street and square and crescent[00:01:59]

We can feel our living past in our shadowed present[00:02:04]

Ghosts beside our starlit thames[00:02:10]

Who lived and loved and died[00:02:13]

Keep throughout the ages London pride[00:02:17]

London pride has been handed down to us[00:02:24]

London pride is a flower that's free[00:02:28]

London pride means our own dear town to us[00:02:31]

And our pride it for ever will be[00:02:34]

Grey city stubbornly implanted[00:02:38]

Taken so for granted for a thousand years[00:02:41]

Stay city smokily enchanted[00:02:45]

Cradle of our memories our hopes and fears[00:02:48]

Every blitz your resistance toughening[00:02:54]

From the ritz to the anchor and crown[00:02:57]

Nothing ever could override the pride of London town[00:03:01]
