ROGER MILLER- " ENGLAND SWINGS " (W / LYRICS)

THIS SONG IS FROM 1965. IT PEAKED AT #8 ON BILLBOARD. LYRICS: England swings like a pendulum do bobbies on bicycles two by two
Westminster Abbey the Tower of Big Ben the rosy red cheeks of the little children
Now if you huff and puff and you fin'ly save enough
Money up to take your family on a trip across the sea
Take a tip before you take your trip let me tell you where you go go to England oh
Mama's old pijamas and your papa's mustache
Fallin' out the window sill frolic in the grash
Tryin' to mock the way they talk fun but all in vain
Gepin' at the dapper men with ferby hats and canes

England swings like a pendulum do
Bobbys on bicycles two by two
Westminister Abby, the tower Big Ben
The rosy red cheeks of the little children

Now if you huff and puff and you finally save enough money up
To take your family on a trip across the sea
Take a tip before you take a trip
Let me tell you where to go- go to england oh

Your mama's old pajamas and your poppa's mustache
Falling out the window sill frolick in the grass
Trying to mock the way they talk- fun but all in vain
gaping at the dapper men in derby hats and canes

This is my most favorite thing from Mr. Miller, right next to him telling/singing the Christmas special 'Nestor, the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey'.
