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

Christmas is coming Christmas is coming[00:00:07]

Christmas is coming again[00:00:09]

But that never thrills me[00:00:12]

The thought of it chills me[00:00:15]

I tell you it fills me with pain[00:00:17]

It makes me remember a Christmas gone by[00:00:20]

When I was extremely upset[00:00:23]

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

Would very much rather forget[00:00:30]

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

But nobody asked me to play[00:00:37]

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[00:00:54]

I took me harp to a party[00:00:57]

But nobody asked me to play[00:00:59]

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

They asked Mrs Morgan to play her mouth-organ[00:01:08]

And somebody else did a dance[00:01:14]

They let Mrs Carter perform a sonata[00:01:16]

But I wasn't given a chance[00:01:20]

A north country person called Sandy McPherson[00:01:23]

Played bagpipes and took off his coat[00:01:27]

While both the Miss Fawcetts bust[00:01:31]

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[00:01:39]

Nobody asked me to play[00:01:44]

The others were jolly and earty[00:01:47]

But I wasn't feeling so gay[00:01:51]

I felt so ashamed at not striking a note[00:01:56]

That I tried to hide the thing under me coat[00:01:59]

I took me harp to a party[00:02:03]

But nobody asked me to play[00:02:07]

So I took the darned thing away[00:02:11]

They sang home sweet home[00:02:15]

And The Banks of loch lomond[00:02:20]

And All the king's horses then trees[00:02:23]

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

And spreading their jam on the keys[00:02:28]

A daughter called Lena played her concertina[00:02:31]

We all played ridiculous games[00:02:35]

Til old Mr Dyer set his whiskers on fire[00:02:39]

And a fire engine played on the flames[00:02:43]

But I took me harp to a party[00:02:47]

But nobody asked me to play[00:02:51]

So I took the darned thing away[00:02:54]
