And the devil coughed
In the organ loft
And I awoke
The Vicar Spoke

When her good friend nell
Banged her head on that table …
There Was A Young Lady Called Lou
There was a young lady called Lou
Who wore 2 kinds of shoe.
One was red,
Or so Lou said,
As she was colour blind too!

Who wore one high-heel shoe.
I happen to know
That the other was low
As I lent Lou my shoe!

Who dressed all in blue.
Her dress was short
But I ought
To stop there as Lou may sue!

There was a young lady called Bess
Who spoke to me of progress.
She was extremely petite
And had dainty feet
But her hair was a terrible mess!

She had long blonde hair
And during our steamy affair
I wore her little black dress!

Who liked to shout “here, here”.
When it came to voting time
He composed a rhyme,
That poetical young parliamentarian called Lear!

Who drank a bottle of ink.
When she turned bright blue
And said “I love you”
It made me turn to drink!

There Was A Young Man Called Pete
There was a young man called Pete
Who did my wine cellar deplete.
