Songs


The Irish Rovers sang this variant on an old song, the first verse of which is:
:My old man's a dustman
:He wears a dustman's hat
:He wears cor-"blimey" trousers
:And he lives in a Council flat
:He looks so proper, done up
:In his great big hobnail boots
:He has such a time to pull 'em up
:That he calls 'em daisy roots
