THE GRAND OLD DUKE OF YORK

[dleewhee]

Logan and I both love the song! Thanks for the share, geoff!

Smiles,

Dona'

@dleewhee Glad you liked it , Dona and Logan. I was wearing that uniform when you lot chased us bloomin' British to the town of New Orleans. Oh-oh! I think you are too young to remember that one!

[mktmic7]

love this ********

[nad64]

Wonderful!!!!

[geoff1945]

Well, thanks but you didn't have to get dressed up to tell your story - or is the 'old-rocker image just a disguise? lol

Hell, I hope not!

I used to tell my boys rambling never-ending stories just to keep them quiet in the car. You judged how good they were by how few times you got, "Are we there yet?" per mile.

[nad64]

No that is the way I look about everyday. But Now that you say that, I will dress up for the next video. I know what you mean about the kids in the car. I have 7 children and 5 grandchildren, my car was a flippin school bus.

I made a comment here before and it's gone now. you look cool and Lou needs to have your hat. NEEDS....

[geoff1945]

Yes I noticed a comment appear and disappear within seconds. I thought perhaps you had made one of those awkward spelling mistakes and had gone to bed before you remembered to repost it.

Alex, I am not the least bit surprised that Lou has needs but do you think you NEED to overstate the CASE.........(See what I did there?)

[johnnyboydmusik]

you are one crazy dude....i like your song,

that style of music is very new for me.i like it..talk to you later............JB

[geoff1945]

My wife agrees with the first part of your comment, JB though perhaps not in the same way as you say it!

I'm a children's entertainer/educator by trade and I use alternative nursery rhyme as a form of communicating messages.

As my 'whingeing' friends are complaining about this being too short, I'll put up compilations in future. Now sit up straight Class YT and listen to the nice man! lol

Nice song, Geoff! Like your disguise :-) ~ Karl-Heinz

[geoff1945]

Thanks Karl-Heinz. The costume is not a disguise, I wear it every time my wife wants me to go shopping with her. She says there is no way she wants to be seen with me dressed like that! It works every time. lol

[ERICROBILLARD1]

great!!!!  super costume!!!!

[geoff1945]

Thanks, Eric (your name?) I am glad you like the costume. I will tell you a little story about it later.

[JazzEthics]

That was a little on the short side Geoff...but a fine "ditty' it was... And i must say, keep this up and you could bring back the 3 corner hat back into fashion!

[geoff1945]

Isn't it already in fas......Oh hell! Not another sartorial boob! I must have been born in the wrong time. As to the length of this piece, I refer you to my reply to Christopher (Onkelbuke) Thanks Lar.

[reliablebow]

Quite Lovely a piece, and think of the money saved! Too bad the Ol' Duke wasn' as thrifty....Fore! for the course...aaarrrggghh for the next pirate show(yours of course, not the real pirates...wait, ...are You a pirate?:)

[geoff1945]

I am what you want me to be, me harty!

Thanks Michael

[EdMuirton]

Most enjoyed Geoff! Cheers!

[geoff1945]

Thanks Ed. Just a little ditty I do for school children.

[onkelbuke]

great performance geoff, great song, i love it. where did you buy this clothes `?looks great.

great job, litlebit short.

how are you geoff, hope everything is fine and there comes more from you and your son, you sound great together. so, now its bedtime, must work tomorrow, but i have free at thursday, so i speak again to you my friend, and take a look nearly to your new musik. cheers buddy, CHris

[geoff1945]

Thanks Chris.

Yes the song is short but that is because it is only a nursery rhyme.

I may animate it and add a few new verses. I only put it on in a response to Raymond Crooke's protest song earlier.

The costume I am wearing was given to me by the ex-Town Crier of Chester a few years ago. I normally wear it in my pirate shows.

Speak to you on Thursday, friend.
