Let's Take You Back (To The Good Old Days)

Let's take you back to the good old days
When your mum was just a girl
When your dad was a lad and joy sting
Here are the songs that you could sing
Sing along with the songs of the good old days

Daisy, Daisy
Give me your arms dude
I'm half crazy
All for the love of you

My old man said: "Follow the van
And don't dilly-dally on the way!"
Off went the van with me home packed in it
I followed on with me old cock linnet

But I dallied and dallied, dallied and dallied
Lost the way and don't know where to roam
Well, you can't trust a fellow like an old time copper
When you can' t find your way home

Roll out the barrel
We'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel
We've got the blues on the run

Zing, boom, tararrel
Ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel
For the gang's all here

Let's take you back to the good old days
When your mum was just a girl
When times were good and times were bad
These are the songs that made you glad

What's the use of worrying?
It never was worth while
So pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile

Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
Now I love London so
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
I think of it wherever I go

Oh, I get a funny feeling inside of me
Just walking down that town
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That I love London town

It's a long way to Tippararee
It's a long way to go
It's a long way to Tippararee
To the sweetest girl I know

Goodbye, Piccadilly
Farewell, Leicester Square
It's a long, long way to Tippararee
But my heart's right there

When you're smiling, when you're smiling
The whole world smiles with

Let's take you back to the good old days
When your mum was just a girl
When your dad was a lad and joy sting
Hear are songs that you sing
Sing along with the songs of the good old days
