00:00We've got a handful of songs to sing you, can't stop a voice when it longs to sing you,
00:16new songs and blues songs and songs to bring you, happiness, no more, no less, baby we do.
00:23Hello.
00:23Hello there.
00:25Hiya, Keith.
00:25Hello, and good day to you, Miss Morgan.
00:27You're looking most attractive today. What a pretty dress that is.
00:30Are you feeling all right? You've never noticed what I've been wearing before, have you?
00:34Been out in the sun?
00:36No, actually, I'm trying to be gallant, because we've got some boy meets girl songs to sing today.
00:40And our first boy is a soldier in Karen Hearn's picture.
00:45And the girl is saying, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me?
00:48Well, girls are allowed to propose in a leap year.
00:50And another girl who's taken advantage of that is Debbie Scott.
00:53Her soldier has a drum and a pistol.
00:55Ah, no fife and musket, eh? That means he must be an officer.
00:59She's a clever girl, then, because an officer would make a fine husband.
01:02Ah, yes, but it's not as easy as all that.
01:04Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me with your musket, fife and drum?
01:11Oh, no, sweet maid, I cannot marry you, because I have no coat to put on.
01:15So off she went to her grandfather's chest and brought in a coat of the very, very, very best.
01:23Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me with your musket, fife and drum?
01:30Oh, no, sweet maid, I cannot marry you, because I have no hat to put on.
01:35So off she went to her grandfather's chest and brought in a hat of the very, very best.
01:40She brought in a hat of the very, very best.
01:43And the soldier put it on.
01:45Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me with your musket, fife and drum?
01:50Oh, no, sweet maid, I cannot marry you, because I have no boots to put on.
01:54So off she went to her grandfather's chest and brought in a pair of the very, very best.
02:00She brought in a pair of the very, very best, and the soldier put them on.
02:05Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me with your musket, fife and drum?
02:10Oh, no, sweet maid, I cannot marry you, because I have no shirt to put on.
02:14So off she went to her grandfather's chest and brought in a shirt of the very, very best.
02:19She brought in a shirt of the very, very best, and the soldier put it on.
02:23Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me with your musket, fife and drum?
02:29Oh, no, sweet maid, I cannot marry you, because I have a wife of my own.
02:34Oh, cheek, an officer should know better than to lead a girl on, so it's your turn to do the chasing.
02:40Sing Where Are You Going to, My Pretty Maid, and see how far flattering gets you.
02:45Where are you going to, my pretty maid?
02:48Where are you going to, my pretty maid?
02:51I'm going a-milking, sir, she said, sir, she said, sir, she said.
02:59I'm going a-milking, sir, she said.
03:03Can I come with you, my pretty maid?
03:06Can I come with you, my pretty maid?
03:09You're kindly welcome, sir, she said, sir, she said, sir, she said.
03:16You're kindly welcome, sir, she said.
03:21What is your fortune, my pretty maid?
03:24What is your fortune, my pretty maid?
03:27My face is my fortune, sir, she said, sir, she said.
03:34My face is my fortune, sir, she said.
03:38Then I can't marry you, my pretty maid.
03:41Then I can't marry you, my pretty maid.
03:44Nobody asked you, sir, she said.
03:48Sir, she said, sir, she said.
03:51Nobody asked you so, she said.
03:55Certainly put me in my place, didn't it?
03:57We're one all now. Let's have a truce, shall we?
04:00Sing a song where everyone ends up happily ever after.
04:03Oh, that's a good idea. I think this cup will fit the bill, don't you?
04:06Oh, yes. The Owl and the Pussycat, painted by Geraldine Hart.
04:10They're putting to sea in a beautiful pea red boat.
04:13Oh, never mind. It makes a change.
04:15Here's a pea green boat from Russell Morris,
04:18containing the Owl, the Pussycat and a small guitar
04:21just about to fall into the sea.
04:23Oh, hold on to yours, Keith.
04:24I'll do better than that. I'll play it in a minute
04:26when I've shown you just one more picture,
04:27and it's from Elizabeth Moseley.
04:29And she's drawn a jar of honey and lots of money,
04:32although it's not wrapped up in a £5 note.
04:34Well done, everyone. And here's your song.
04:37The Owl and the Pussycat went to sea
04:40in a beautiful pea green boat.
04:43They took some honey and plenty of money
04:46wrapped up in a £5 note.
04:49The Owl looked up to the stars above
04:52and sang to a small guitar.
04:55Oh, lovely Pussy, oh Pussy, my love,
04:58what a sweet little Pussy you are.
05:01You are. You are. What a sweet little Pussy you are.
05:07Pussy said to the owl, you elegant fowl,
05:10how charmingly sweet you sing.
05:13Too long we have tarried, let us be married,
05:16but what shall we do for a ring?
05:19They sailed away for a year and a day
05:22to the land where the bong tree grows.
05:25And there, in a wood, a piggy wig stood
05:28with a ring at the end of his nose.
05:31His nose, his nose, with a ring at the end of his nose.
05:37Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling your ring?
05:41Said Piggy, I will.
05:43They took it away and were married next day
05:45by the turkey who lived on the hill.
05:48They dined on mince and slices of quince
05:51reserved up with a runcible spoon.
05:54And hand in hand by the edge of the sand
05:57They danced to the light of the moon
06:00The moon, the moon
06:03They danced to the light of the moon
06:06The moon, the moon
06:09They danced to the light of the moon
06:14Isn't that nice?
06:16I wish someone would serenade me to a small guitar.
06:19I think that sounds like a hint, doesn't it, to you?
06:22Mm-hmm.
06:24I'll give to you a paper of pins
06:27If that's the way true love begins
06:29If you'll marry, marry, marry, marry
06:31If you'll marry me
06:33I'll not accept your paper of pins
06:35If that's the way true love begins
06:38I'll not marry, marry, marry, marry
06:40I'll not marry you
06:42Well, I'll give to you a dress of red
06:44Stished all round with a golden thread
06:46If you'll marry, marry, marry, marry
06:48If you'll marry me
06:50I'll not accept your dress of red, stitched all around with golden thread
06:55I'll not marry, marry, marry, marry, I'll not marry you
06:59I'll give to you the key to my chest, and all the money that I possess
07:03If you'll marry, marry, marry, marry, if you'll marry me
07:07Yes, I'll accept the key to your chest, and all the money that you possess
07:12Yes, I'll marry, marry, marry, marry, yes, I'll marry you
07:16Ha, ha, ha, money is all, a woman's love is nothing at all
07:21And I'll not marry, marry, marry, marry, I'll not marry you
07:24He'll not marry me
07:26No, I'll not marry her, so there
07:29Oh, father, you're in the lead again
07:32I'm two on down, but I'll think of something
07:34Well, I've got something to show you
07:35And it's a picture from Joanne Chapman
07:38She wants us to sing, there was an old woman who swallowed a fly
07:41Do you think we could get together again just to sing the song for Joanne?
07:44Um, separate verses, of course, nothing too cosy
07:48Oh, it's agreed, OK
07:49There was an old woman who swallowed a fly
07:55Now I don't know why she swallowed a fly
07:57Perhaps she'll die
07:59There was an old woman who swallowed a spider
08:02That wriggled and jiggled and tiggled inside her
08:05She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
08:07But I don't know why she swallowed a fly
08:09Perhaps she'll die
08:11I know an old woman who swallowed a fly
08:14How absurd to swallow a bird
08:16She swallowed a bird to catch the spider
08:19That wriggled and jiggled and tiggled inside her
08:21She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
08:24Now I don't know why she swallowed a fly
08:26Perhaps she'll die
08:28I know an old woman who swallowed a cat
08:30I fancy that, to swallow a cat
08:32She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
08:35She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
08:36That wriggled and jiggled and tiggled inside her
08:39She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
08:41But I don't know why she swallowed a fly
08:43Perhaps she'll die
08:45I know an old woman who swallowed a dog
08:46I know an old woman who swallowed a dog
08:47What a hog to swallow a dog
08:49She swallowed a dog to catch the cat
08:52She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
08:53She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
08:55That wriggled and jiggled and tiggled inside her
08:58She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
09:01Now I don't know why she swallowed a fly
09:03Perhaps she'll die
09:04I know an old woman who swallowed a horse
09:07She did, of course
09:09Ooh, there's some people who swallowed some amazing things
09:12Yes, but only in silly songs
09:13I mean, our friends wouldn't swallow anything
09:15Except the sweets and the food that their mummy gave to them
09:17Yes
09:18Very sensible
09:19But of course, if they swallowed a bar of soap
09:21They'd be blowing bubbles
09:22Just like in this picture
09:23By Paul, Julie and Lindsay Smith
09:26And they live on Orkney
09:27Ooh, not only bubble blowing
09:29But puddles filling
09:30What a sloppy washer
09:31Mmm, that's a bit of a mouthful, isn't it?
09:33Mmm, rather hard to swallow
09:35Oh, stop mucking about
09:36Let's sing I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles
09:37Okay
09:38I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles
09:44Pretty bubbles in the air
09:47They fly so high
09:50Nearly reach the sky
09:52Then like my dreams
09:53They fade and die
09:55Fortunes never find me
09:58I've looked everywhere
10:01I'm forever blowing bubbles
10:05Pretty bubbles in the air
10:08Ooh, wasn't that a jolly song to end with?
10:11What do you mean, end with?
10:12We can't go yet
10:13I haven't had my own back
10:14For that sneaky paper of pins
10:15Well, we could play Snap after the programme
10:17We always win at that
10:18Oh, that'll do
10:19And then our friends can get on
10:20With their painting and drawing
10:21Oh, yes
10:22We are busy bees
10:23Yes, it's time to buzz off
10:24Bye
10:24Bzzz, bye
10:26We got a handful of songs to sing you
10:29Can't stop my voice when it longs to sing you
10:33New songs and blues songs
10:34Are songs to bring you
10:36Happiness
10:37No more, no less
10:39More over wherever we may roam to
10:42Or any shore that we may be blown to
10:45We know that we're gonna feel at home too
10:49La Bella
10:50Music out
10:52Jazz
10:53Cha-cha-cha
10:55Calypso and Streep and the Cry
10:57Strains
