Grandad's Flanellette Nightshirt (From "Let George Do It") - George Formby[00:00:00]
Now in our family we've got an heirloom[00:00:04]
They handed it to me a year ago[00:00:08]
It's been in our possession since Grandad was a lad[00:00:12]
I'll tell you what it is and then you'll know[00:00:16]
It's my Grandad's Flannelette nightshirt[00:00:20]
In it I was christened one day[00:00:24]
Down at the church they were in a whirl[00:00:28]
No one seemed to know if I were boy or girl[00:00:32]
They'd had one or two and ee they were in mess[00:00:36]
But it's all right said the preacher rather curt[00:00:40]
I've been and had a quiz and I've found out what it is[00:00:44]
By his Grandad's Flannelette shirt lordy lordy[00:00:48]
His Grandad's Flannelette shirt[00:00:52]
In my Grandad's Flannelette nightshirt[00:00:56]
I got married one day[00:01:00]
In the train my bride gave a shout[00:01:04]
Ee what is that you are pulling out[00:01:08]
I said It's old fashioned and it's tattered and torn[00:01:12]
But I've brought it honeymooning with me Gert[00:01:16]
When she said What is it dear I whispered in her ear[00:01:20]
It's my Grandad's Flannelette shirt lordy lordy[00:01:24]
My Grandad's Flannelette shirt[00:01:28]
The other day I got an invitation[00:01:32]
To go and join a nudist colony[00:01:36]
And as the life is healthy and in the open air[00:01:40]
I trotted off as happy as can be[00:01:44]
With my Grandad's Flannelette nightshirt[00:01:47]
I walked up to the door[00:01:52]
Someone said Now don't make a fuss[00:01:56]
Just take off your clothes and you'll be like us[00:02:00]
I was bashful so I stayed by myself[00:02:04]
For with the girls I didn't want to flirt[00:02:08]
But when I fell asleep they all came and had a peep[00:02:12]
At my Grandad's Flannelette shirt lordy lordy[00:02:16]
My Grandad's Flannelette shirt[00:02:20]
