Brahn Boots - Stanley Holloway[00:00:00]
Written by:Bert Lee/R P Weston[00:00:00]
Our aunt Hanna's passed away[00:00:06]
We 'ad her funeral today[00:00:08]
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]
Why brahn boots[00:00:28]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:00:30]
Fancy coming to a funeral[00:00:34]
In brahn boots[00:00:35]
I will admit 'e 'ad a nice black tie[00:00:38]
Black fingernails and a nice black eye[00:00:40]
But yer can't see people of when they die[00:00:43]
In brahn boots[00:00:46]
And aunt 'ad been so very good to him[00:00:49]
Done all that any muvver could for him[00:00:52]
And Jim her son to show his clars[00:00:55]
Rolls up to make it all a farce[00:00:58]
In brahn boots[00:01:01]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:01:03]
While all the rest[00:01:06]
Wore decent black and mourning suits[00:01:07]
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 spoil our day[00:01:18]
Wiv 'is brahn boots[00:01:22]
In the graveyard we left Jim[00:01:27]
None of us said much to him[00:01:29]
Yus we all gave I'm the bird[00:01:32]
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[00:01:45]
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 neighbors all remark[00:02:04]
What I'm chief mourner wot a blooming lark[00:02:07]
Why 'e looks more like a bookmaker's clerk[00:02:11]
In brahn boots[00:02:14]
That's why we 'ad to be so rude to him[00:02:17]
That's why we never said ow do to him[00:02:20]
We didn't know he didn't say[00:02:24]
He'd give 'is other boots away[00:02:28]
But brahn boots[00:02:33]
I ask yer brahn boots[00:02:39]
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[00:03:00]
Til an angel whispers come in mate[00:03:06]
Where's yer brahn boots[00:03:17]
