[00:00.00]Lancashire Hot Pot Swinger - George Formby
[00:08.80]There's a band of syncopators
[00:11.12]And they're all first raters
[00:13.29]Every night excitement is intense
[00:17.16]When the leader waves his baton
[00:19.29]You want to keep your hat on
[00:21.46]It's like a hurricane when they commence
[00:26.04]It's a real hot rhythm band
[00:27.91]It's the finest in the land
[00:30.06]The lancashire hot pot swingers
[00:34.26]Of instruments they've quite a few
[00:36.48]A trombone hambone wishbone too
[00:38.67]The lancashire hot pot swingers
[00:42.80]They swing high and low for all they are worth
[00:47.01]They ought to take another swing and swing off the earth
[00:51.28]At dance halls they make such a din
[00:53.52]The floor gives way and the roof falls in
[00:55.53]On the lancashire hot pot swingers
[00:59.76]The drummer bangs his drum with pride
[01:01.88]You'd think his missus was inside
[01:03.97]With the lancashire hot pot swingers
[01:08.23]My music's upside down one said
[01:10.37]So he played it standing on his head
[01:12.46]With the lancashire hot pot swingers
[01:16.81]They swing high and low for all they are worth
[01:21.15]They ought to take another swing and swing off the earth
[01:25.50]You ought to hear em playing faust
[01:27.68]They play it better when they're soused
[01:29.79]The lancashire hot pot swingers
[01:34.08]The cornet player no longer blows
[01:36.20]So he plays his cornet through his nose
[01:38.25]With the lancashire hot pot swingers
[01:42.52]Their crooner we bought him a wreath
[01:44.62]Because he swallowed his false teeth
[01:46.76]With the lancashire hot pot swingers
[01:50.96]They swing high and low for all they are worth
[01:55.32]They ought to take another swing and swing off the earth
[01:59.53]They broadcast once but holy snakes
[02:01.73]We'd three typhoons and four earthquakes
[02:03.95]Through the lancashire hot pot swingers
[02:08.41]Their conductor makes a fuss
[02:10.29]He swanks cause he conducts a bus
[02:12.43]And the lancashire hot pot swingers
[02:16.74]One chap's got no roof to his mouth
[02:18.89]You ought to hear him croon down south
[02:20.99]With the lancashire hot pot swingers
[02:25.24]They swing high and low for all they are worth
[02:29.60]They ought to take another swing and swing off the earth
[02:33.88]They blast and blow and blow and blast
[02:35.99]You blast each blast folks that's the last
[02:38.04]Of the lancashire hot pot swingers
