Melancholy Margaret

Lyrics

Nobby was a soldier, a life in the Army Margarets back home alone waiting suspiciously She can't hide the misery, the upset & despair When she found out Nobby had been having it off elsewhere There's Eric & there's Robby & there's Derrick & there's Bobby They gave her the elbow There's Harry & there's Willy & there's Barry & there's Billy also Whose that then? (Chorus:) Woe is me, I'm melancholy Margaret, I fret coz they leave me God help me I'm melancholy. Snurree?! Tommy was a driver he worked on the buses "I've got some overtime to do" this is what he says But Margaret wasn't having it, she searched high & low But Tommy's gone he's neckin' on in the back of the bus depot There's Ronnie & there's Kenny & there's Donny & there's Denny They gave her the elbow There's Ronnie & there's Timmy & there's Micky & there's Jimmy also Whose that then? Woe is me...(guitar bit) Woe is me...
