The Nolan Sisters looking pretty in pink with a song that was originally a UK hit for White Plains in 1971.
Taken from the Morecambe & Wise Christmas Show 1976.

Parting in your hair, it's hardly ever there
Wash your face
Shabby in your dress, always look a mess
Don't you care?
Mummy's there to see you always look your best
Change your dirty vest

When you grow to be a King
Never do a thing
Four and twenty blackbirds sing along
Royal gifts they all will bring
When you are a King
Everywhere you go, people bowing low
Carriages to take you anywhere
Feet won't ever touch a thing
When you are a King

Tore your shirt again, fighting in the rain
With whats-his-name
Shoe-black on your face, you're really a disgrace
Mummy smiles and all the while
Because she loves you
She will worry so
And if you're good you know

That when you grow you'll be a King
Never do a thing
Four and twenty blackbirds sing along
Royal gifts they all will bring
When you are a King
Everywhere you go, people bowing low
Carriages to take you anywhere
Feet won't ever touch a thing
When you are a King

When you are a King
Never do a thing
Four and twenty blackbirds sing along
Royal gifts they all will bring
When you are a King.
Everywhere you go, people bowing low
Carriages to take you anywhere
Feet won't ever touch a thing
When you are a King

  • What a 5 card trick they would make WOOOOOOOW.

  • Ermmm...

  • wow !! the Nolans..awesome !!

  • Lovely girls and very well sung

  • Sing my song.

  • Gorgeous! The pitches and harmonies are flawless, that's what produces the pure, silken sound of the Nolans.

    (Morecambe and Wise or The Two Ronnies? I seem to remember Ronnie Barker saying in his inimitable way "Ladies and Gentlemen, the Nolan Sisters").

  • Sweet natural beautiful girls, where did they all go to?

  • i remember them singing this on this show.....a great version

  • Never heard this version before (though I'm sure I would have watched the M&W Christmas show in '76 being of "that age"). White Plains version was - and always will be - one of my all time favourite songs, but this version is also very good. Glad I had the chance to see and hear it.

  • nice version by the girls.
