OH, THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
WAS A GET-AWAY TRAIN
THAT WENT FROM
NORTHERN STATIONS
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT
ON A SATURDAY NIGHT
BOUND FOR THE 'LUMINATIONS
NO MOTHERS AND DADS
JUST GIRLS AND LADS
YOUNG AND FANCY-FREE
OUT FOR THE LAUGHS
ON THE GOLDEN MILE
AT BLACKPOOL BY THE SEA
I REMEMBER VERY WELL
ALL THE HAPPY GANG
ABOARD THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
I REMEMBER THEM PALS OF MINE
WHEN I RIDE
THE BLACKPOOL LINE
AND THE SONGS WE SANG
TOGETHER ON
THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
LITTLE PIGGY GREENFIELD
HE WAS THERE
HE THOUGHT
HE WAS MIGHTY SLICK
HE BOUGHT A HAT
ON THE GOLDEN MILE
THE HAT SAID 'KISS ME QUICK'
PIGGY WAS A LAD
FOR ALL THE GIRLS
BUT HE DRANK TOO MUCH BEER
HE MADE A PASS
AT A LIVERPOOL LASS
AND SHE PUSHED HIM
OFF THE PIER
I REMEMBER VERY WELL
ALL THE HAPPY GANG
ABOARD THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
I REMEMBER THEM PALS OF MINE
WHEN I RIDE
THE BLACKPOOL LINE
AND THE SONGS WE SANG
TOGETHER ON
THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
ICE CREAM SALLY
COULD NEVER SETTLE DOWN
SHE LIVED FOR HER
KNICKERBOCKER GLORIES
'TIL SHE CLICKED WITH A BLOKE
WHO SAID HE WAS BROKE
BUT SHE LOVED HIS
ICE CREAM STORIES
SALLY TOOK IT ALL IN
WITH A SMILE AND A GRIN
SHE FELL FOR SAILOR JACK
THEY WENT FOR A TRIP
TO THE ISLE OF MAN
AND NEVER DID COME BACK
I REMEMBER VERY WELL
ALL THE HAPPY GANG
ABOARD THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
I REMEMBER THEM PALS OF MINE
WHEN I RIDE
THE BLACKPOOL LINE
AND THE SONGS WE SANG
TOGETHER ON
THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
SOME OF US WENT UP
THE BLACKPOOL TOWER
AND OTHERS IN
THE TUNNEL OF LOVE
A FEW MADE OFF
FOR THE BLACKPOOL SANDS
UNDER THE PIER ABOVE
THERE WAS ALWAYS A RUSH
AT THE MIDNIGHT HOUR
BUT WE MADE IT JUST THE SAME
AND I MADE OFF
WITH A LIVERPOOL LASS
BUT I NEVER COULD
REMEMBER HER NAME
BUT I REMEMBER VERY WELL
ALL THE HAPPY GANG
ABOARD THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
I REMEMBER THEM PALS OF MINE
WHEN I RIDE
THE BLACKPOOL LINE
AND THE SONGS WE SANG
TOGETHER ON
THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
NOW THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
HAS A THOUSAND TALES
IF THEY COULD ALL BE TOLD
MANY OF THESE I WILL RECALL
AS I AM GROWING OLD
THEY WERE HAPPY DAYS
AND I MISS THE TIMES
WE'D PULL THE CURTAINS DOWN
AND THE PASSION WAGON
WOULD STEAM BACK HOME
AND WE WOULD GO TO TOWN
I REMEMBER VERY WELL
ALL THE HAPPY GANG
ABOARD THE BLACKPOOL BELLE
I REMEMBER THEM PALS OF MINE
WHEN I RIDE
THE BLACKPOOL LINE
AND THE SONGS WE SANG
TOGETHER ON
THE BLACKPOOL BELLE...
